Any MCAS Patients on This Forum Who Do NOT Flush or Have Itching?

I am sorry to say that even though Dr. Afrin believes I have MCAS, I am having my doubts.  One reason I am doubting is because an allergist put the doubts in my mind by what he was saying to me.  He mentioned flushing and itching, both of which I do NOT have.

Is there anyone else on this forum with MCAS that does NOT have flushing or itching as their symptoms?

It would help me to accept my diagnosis if I knew there were others out there like me.  Thanks in advance.

There are plenty of people who have different reactions. Some will be more systemic with GI and bone pain. Others may only have skin issues. The list goes on...and it is not required to have every symptom on that list. So, that is why we find that we are all so different and yet can share a common medical condition.

I have MCAS and do have flushing but have never had much for itching. I do get headaches airy foffy feeling,facial tingling,throat fells off sometimes and lots of stomach symptoms. Each persons reactions are a little different.
