Allergy to Tuna Fish in oil

I heard that being allergic to canned tuna, aka processed tuna, was unlikely..but I went on an elimination diet and when I added back tuna, my low grade headache came back. I just wanted to post this in case it helps someone else. I was shocked that I am allergic to tuna fish. I thought I was craving it cause I needed salt. I actually had a tuna fish "habit". I ate it for breakfast LOL.

Anyway, I did some research and Starkist uses safflower oil and safflower is a member of the ragweed family. Also a food dye called tartrazine is found in tuna and also histamine which is scombroid poisoning, not to mention the mercury. Anyway just wanted to share this, because I was really ill and was worried.
