Default Coffee allergy

I had an allergy panel done when I was younger, and coffee was one of the things they tested which I was positive for as an allergy. I can drink it, but I have to be in "good shape" when I do. If I'm stressed, tired, sick or even a little down it causes various symptoms. Usually I get severe stomach cramps, but I also get headaches which are more like the ones I get when I'm sick. I also usually feel like I'm getting a sinus infection when I drink it (ears hurt, throat and tonsils too), and even a small cup will make me shake. The reason I was tested was because my dad has a coffee allergy, and it caused some damage as far as his intestinal wall. I know this also sounds odd, but coffee can sometimes (rarely) put me into a depression (it happens usually when I've drank coffee for a few days in a row), which usually lasts only a 12-24 hrs. Also my allergies to cats/dogs becomes severely worsened.
