Sounds like you are experiencing allergic reaction to the coconut oil. Symptoms would include: - tingling in the mouth, throat or lips - hives - eczema - general inflammation and itching - coughing - wheezing - difficulty breathing - shortness of breath - chest pain - nasal congestion - sneezing - sinus pressure - sinus headaches - runny nose (for more information: http://www.livestrong.com/article/368876-coconut-oil-allergy-symptoms/) I suggest you stop taking it and observe if the symptoms go away. Take care!
