I do have a lot going on, as caring for my Mother, recent divorce, muscle spasms, home in foreclosure, weakness and no family or anyone to help.I really wish the hives would at least go away.

Thanks,

Wanda

" Yes, I have had lip swelling on 2 occasions. I also had difficulty breathing that ended me up in ER. I have had the hives since August with no answers yet but my allergist appt is scheduled for Monday, thank goodness.

I am sorry to hear about all the stress you have in your life. I know stress doesn't help this condition at all.
