How our body respond to allergy reaction is like this in general:
Allergen (factors that caused e.g. pollen, fur, some people even allergy to food like mango). so when allergen first in contact with you, the body will not react but until the second time you expose to the allergen then your body will react to it.
Basically, your body will regard the allergen as foreign body but in fact this allergen is not harmful to us. Thus, the body immune system unnecessaryly react to it and produce allergic reactions.
Allergic reactions: swelling of eyes, itchiness, rashes.
How doctor check for allergic reaction or what you allergic to?
Dr will MAYBE get your blood sample to test. Or they will apply certain allergen and measure if you are allergic or not.
Not to worry i believe the doctor will treat you nicely. Trust their profesionalism

Go to see a Doctor who specialises in Allergies and the person can perform some tests on you. Within 40 minutes, the Doctor should be able to give a list of what you are allergic to.

I don't care what kind I have but I keep benadryl around anyways plus it makes me drowsy and sleep but as the most extreme precaution an inhaler but doctors wont always know lots of time I just have to kind of use trial and error method. I know mold in a house we left caused allergies with asthma but he is alot better since away from the source and I check my portable air conditioners every few days and scrub out the dust collected. I think I am allergic to cheese because I feel like crap after I eat it. Lethargic. Doctors do not live with us obviously duh on myself but hay fever seems the least serious I don't know I am not a doc.

They first start with skin tests. After that they may want to do blood tests. If you were in anaphylactic shock you would not be waiting until Monday to see the doctor. You would be in the hospital now or dead!

Gosh Emmie...that need to be horrible for you, however it definitely does not sound like allergic reaction. It is feasible that you're getting an illness or inflammation within the eye as a result of one of the reasons. Be cautious together with your eye make-up applicators. They may also be loaded with micro organism. Make certain that you just periodically blank them with alcohol and enable to dry fully......or simply pass with cotton swabs that you'll be able to use as soon as and throw away (now not well for the atmosphere however ohhh sooo well in your well being). Gritty is customarily a time period that men and women use to explain conjunctivitis, watery is the extra typical time period for allergic reaction eyes. See if you'll be able to pass with none eye make-up for every week. Then use your make-up with new applicators or applicators you've gotten wiped clean with alcohol. If the gritty feeling re-looks then you've gotten your reply! In the imply time, a slight boric acid resolution and dressed in sun shades will support the eyes consider higher.

Of course a list of your intake of food and other activities just prior to your attack is essential, and an allergist can do a simple series of skin tests to determine your allergies. They are painless and not to be feared.

Maybe your doctor will do a patch test to see what you are allergic to.
