Case #1 - Itchy Mystery

Case #1 - Itchy Mystery
Imagine finally getting a handle on a health issue, only to have it replaced by a whole new set of scary symptoms. That's Sarah's reality.
Sarah, a healthy 25-year-old, loves exploring new restaurants. But one night, everything changed. Out of nowhere, her skin started burning, her lips tingled, and she started to swell. It was terrifying!
Doctors were initially baffled. The usual allergy suspects weren't the culprit. This wasn't a simple food allergy... something more mysterious was at play.
Can you help solve the puzzle and offer Sarah hope? Here are the possible diagnoses:
A) Acute Urticaria (hives)
B) Idiopathic Angioedema (swelling without a clear cause)
C) Severe Food Allergy
D) Mastocytosis (a rare mast cell disorder)
Which do you think it is? Comment below, and stay tuned!
Tomorrow, I'll reveal the diagnosis and what it means for Sarah's treatment journey.
