Hives Support Group
Hives is a relatively common form of allergic reaction that causes raised red skin welts. These welts can range in diameter from 5 mm (0.2 inches) or more, itch severely, and often have a pale border. Urticaria is generally caused by direct contact with an allergenic substance, or an immune response to food or some other allergen. Hives can also be caused by stress.
Hello Everyone! I was diagnosed with Chronic Urticaria 4 years ago. I get them 3-7 times a week and they are exacerbated by the cold (which is even harder because I live in New England). I have been on 6 different medications and did 6 months of Xolair injections without any relief. Anyone tried anything else that works to at least help them a little bit?? Going to a new allergist next month in Boston to see if she can help, but trying to get some ideas before that time. Thank You!!
Food will be mainly expired foods, over ripe fruits like banana which contains amines will trigger an outbreak. Expire dairies in the form of milk powders.
Yeast and moulds are main triggers.
Frozen seafoods, very high in amines poisons.
Take antihistermine for temporary relief.
Find your trigger, avoid it. Potein allergies takes 3 weeks to clear because it keeps circulating in your blood stream.
Perservere, don’t give up, It will go away
Mean time heal and seal your guts, Detox regularly. Mould, parasites, yeast, pesticides and heavy metal detox.
You will get better.
