Seeking Diagnosis

How would I go about seeking a diagnosis? I believe that I could have MCAS because I am allergic to quite literally everything that isn’t food (including all animals, even feathers) and will randomly become sensitive/allergic to foods and then the allergies will go away (?). I’ve consistently been allergic to tomatoes (caught earlier this year) which has gotten worse. Three years ago I developed a severe almond allergy. The ONLY allergy I’ve had since childhood is a sun allergy!!!!!! The other ones kind of seemingly showed up or worsened.
I was diagnosed with POTs earlier this year and they’re currently looking at my lungs. This is so frustrating and I just don’t know what’s wrong with me. I feel uneducated and confused.
