Red, have the doctors given you any referrals? I hope you get to the root of the problem soon
My mom did a little research and found some for me that have 40+ experience. Going to call them today. |

Well guess I should give an update.
Went to see 2 docs, they both tried meds but didnt work. So now I have to find a doc that knows bout hives..that should be fun trying to find. the hives continue to effect my day to day life. And slowly getting worse. Docs think its not allergies, like I have been saying for the longest time. So they think it may something a little more serious. Joy. |

I don't take any meds. Just the ones I started on Friday that the ER doc gave me. Nothing new in my little world, I don't take meds. I am eating the same things. I really don't like its anything in my environment. Believe me I have thought an thought bout possible causes. At first I thought it was my b/f at the time, when they first started it was right after we started to hang out but he is long gone an I'm still breaking out. I washed everything he touched and sat on so nothing could be left. Can't wait to see what the doc thinks, so far the meds the ER doc gave me are working. But we will see how I am tomorrow, I get the hives real bad in the morning after a day of sweating (like today) You might be allergic to your own sweat and have some issues with going out into the sun. I was told a long time ago that I am allergic to my own sweat. If my feet sweat too much I start out with a couple of hives on the bottom of my feet and because they itch so much they turn into blisters. I've learned to manage it over the years so now I don't have the problem anymore. If it's very hot out or the sun is beating down on me, my arms will also break out into small hives. I am beginning to think I am somewhat allergic to the sun. But the reaction isn't alarming enough for me to seek help. I am a fan of cold water. It brings my body temp down and helps with whatever allergy issue is bothering me. Also, if you have access to a pool .. swim often because I have noticed that I have no allergy problems while in the pool and for the whole day after swimming. I found this intriguing. I went away for a week one summer to Wildwood, NJ. My allergies were NON EXISTENT down there. I didn't even want to leave. I'm still perplexed. Hope you get this sorted out. I know how it feels to be driven crazy by your own body. Me an the sun do not get along at all. I had melanoma twice last year but caught it in time. I avoid the sun as much as I can, I always have a fan on me to help with the heat, lots of cool showers as well. The meds seem to be doing great! Im not itchy at all, did wake with a few spots but took my meds an poof their gone. :) |

I haven't changed anything.
I ended up going to the ER Thursday morning, I woke up completely covered in hives. From my chest down to my thighs prob had close to or over 1,000 hives. They gave me a cocktail of meds an got rid of them for that day. But yesterday I started to break out again, ER doc gave me some meds which I have been taking an so far I'm ok. got an appointment with a doc on Monday afternoon. Just hope we can figure out whats going on. ER doc seems to think I may have an auto immune issue. My body seems to be attacking itself for no reason. I'm sure I will be going through lots of tests to see whats going on.

They don't hurt all the time just depends on where they are. The bottom of my feet and on my scare hurt the worse. But I will go see a doc about it when I can find the time.

hmm..thank you guys and girls.
I am stating to think its either from stress or the heat. I woke up today with another bad break out. The back of my thighs are so bad and the scar on my shoulder which hurts like no other. In the morning they tend to be the worse but by the time I get out of the shower an to work the itchy will stop for the most part. I will deff pick up some other meds to see if I can get them under control by myself instead of going to a doctor. But if I can't get it under control I will deff go see someone. I will try to destress today after work an try to stay cool...kinda hard with no AC lol. Yay fans! |

Anyone have chronic hives here? For the past 4 months I have been breaking out for no reason at all. Its not any type of bug bite, I have not changed to any new soaps. At first I took Benadryl with little relief so I changed it to Claritin, I took 20mg an was hive free from anywhere to 4 days to about 2 weeks. But now its not working anyone. I have been living in the bath tub taking oatmeal baths with little relief.
I get the hives on my feet top an bottom, calfs, thighs,hips,lower abdominal, upper arms an at times on my face like the hair line or around my lips. My breathing is always fine, I get a slight temp usually 99.8 to 100.3 but goes away by the end of the day. I'm not sure what I should do...go see a doc an get steriods, which I don't really want. I don't need to gain anymore weight.

God I could go on and on lol.
I hate: Liars People who correct me all the time. People who judge before then even know someone. Sprained ankle
Moving and packing. People who think I'm evil because of the music I listen to. Breaking out in hives for no reason 
Being blamed for something I did not do. People who make me wait for a while just to talk to them. Going to the doctor. Being told I weight to much (DUH I know that) Think I will stop there for now :P |
