Whilst there is that rare case that 1 in out of every 1000 people have what they call an Atypical Antibody in their red blood cells. Antibodies contain histamines and when you have an atypical antibody, instead of your histamines releasing normally they tend to just dump out histamines into the body wasting them. Meaning you are releasing too many histamines. I would advise you go to a doctor and have a blood test done to determine whether or not you have this antibody. It's nothing serious and there's nothing you can really do about it. But it will help you understand a lot of what is going on with your body. People with this antibody tend to have really severe allergies.
