Yes hives free...I did have breast cancer on 9/14/20. Doctor thinks hives could have been a sign. I had a double mastectomy on breast to avoid chemo and radiation. It was very small 3mm. I was blessed! Those hives were the worst. I’m still taking Xolair injections 300mm once a month. Next year I’m going to start 150mm a month.

currently have been dealing with chronic hives for 5 months now. my allergist keeps believing it's my cats and i break out even when I'm not around them or other animals. I'm currently on steroids and hydroxyzine but I still get flare ups. I will definitely see if I can get these injections because living with hives for months now has completely damaged my self esteem. I feel like I can't enjoy myself out without getting a random flare up. thank you so much for posting this video, I truly never wish this upon anyone. this is the most frustrating pain to deal with especially when no one knows the cure and when others assume.

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! I have been experiencing extreme hives for the past two years and like you, I woke up one day with hives and every since I have had hives every single day!! It has been so bad to the point I had to go to the ER several times .. second time was very scary, I was swollen all over, my skin was purple and it even hurt to walk. Flare ups are no fun and dangerous! Seen an allergist that did not help at all! Now I’m switching over to a rheumatologist to see if I finally can get it sorted out. All I want to say is that is very life changing and bothersome. I’m not allergic to anything (did all the allergy tests that there is) and I beginning to think that Xolair or any similar medication might be what will help me with this all.

But I've since developed pressure induced urticaria which means I can't wear tight clothing, socks, watch, jewellery and I'm constantly covered in lines and marks and imprints if I lay or lean or sit..

Hi I wrote to you years ago when I had the hives. I started getting Xolair shots for maybe a year. Hives did stay away then I’ll quit getting the shots. For about two years now. Recently I took a plane to visit my daughter in Florida. The plane landed a little hard and it upset and scared me. Now I’m starting to itch in various places hoping the hives or it back. I think it comes from stress nerves that are deep down in your system. That find a way up through your skin service. I’m OK right now. Thanks a lot I’m looking at your video right now.

Hope that help someone!! I was suffering from "Chronic Urticaria" trying every treatment nothing worked until I discovered the cure which was drinking a lot of water! My case was getting a hive once I do an effort or sleeping itchy electric needles feeling. My personal point view: It comes after a long dry days in winter it damages the skin layer which makes the immune system acts in wrong way releasing histamine instead of water as sweat its all about electricity and nerves and water fix that.

And how many xolair injections did u have to take?

Did you ever take anti histamine

What kind of urticaria do you have?

You are brave to have till wait 6 months to your shot... God Bless you!

Dear Sonja. Thank you for sharing your experience. I have a question for you and other readers. Have you ever used e-cigarettes? I have started xolair treatment 3 years ago. I had 24 shots (48 doses) until now. During the treatment of 6 months plus another 2 months there were no hives. Then after 2 months of the last injection my hives always return. It seems I have to live with xolair for the rest of my life which is not possible. So I need a way out and try to find a clue to stop my hives without depending on xolair. I used to vape e-cigarettes before my urticaria condition started. After 6 months of quitting e-cigarettes my hives started. So I wonder if you ever vaped e-cigarettes or anyone who reads these lines. For a “non-clinical test” purpose I started vaping yesterday once again after 5 years to see if it will stop my hives. I will share the results in a couple of weeks. Regards.

I've lived with these hives for 7 years. I take apetamin and it helped me for 5 years bc of the cyproheptadine ingredient which is stronger than most antihistamines. But it doesn't cure it. I wish they would go away forever.

I’ve watched three of your videos. I’m from Belfast and been suffering with Chronic Urticaria and Angioedema. I’ve been told by doctors I’m a candidate for the injections as nothing else has worked (creams, antihistamines, montelukast, diet) but with covid, everything is delayed. Steroids don’t fully take away symptoms, I’ve been told my case is quite severe. Is there anything you would recommend that helps ease the itch and pain? It’s the swelling, especially facial that is the most frightening! Thanks.
