Unknown. There is evidence that it could actually be caused by Hereditary Alpha Tryptasemia Syndrome. In this disorder, extra copies are made of the gene that codes for tryptase release. Tryptase destroys connective tissue, and histamine is released whenever connective tissue is destroyed. So it's potentially the extra release of tryptase because of gene copies that causes all the other inflammatory markers to be released.
