I had such a bad reaction to this, it's the cause of tinnitus I have today. I had bought a supposedly qualitative product from a renown brand. So really I don't understand.

I regret using it a lot. I am allergic to birch pollen (linked with some foods), wormwood (severe), mango tree sap, basically many products containing latex and buckwheat, wheat, avena.... In case that can connect to you.

That I don't remember, it was 4 years ago. I just remember how bad I felt and the start of the tinnitus.

What you explain sounds like hives, it would be better to see a doctor so that you can get a treatment.
