N.B. Many symptoms of Mastocytosis (mast cell degranulation) are also mediated by dysfunctions of Autonomic Nervous System: tissue/organ systems studied by Neurologists & Cardiologists. Best experts of Mastocytosis are Allergist/Immunologists.
Symptoms, including list above, are aroused by myriad body dysfunctions, disorders, & diseases. Symptoms suggest nature of a disorder, but in & of themselves are not diagnostic for disorders or diseases.
