Guest guest Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Please forgive me if this is a little off-topic, but I'm hoping someone will have some good information. I have had the hives off and on for a few years now. The first time was severe, but now it is just a nuisance. They seem to pop up when I get too warm or sometimes just around where the elastic is in clothing, like the tops of socks, sleeve cuffs, etc. I have had allergy testing and they were not triggered by a food allergy, nor did I get stung, nor do I have a lot of stress. I don't really know why I have them, but I am wondering if anyone knows of a food/herb/vitamin type cure for them. Maybe I am lacking something rather than consuming something bad for me. Or maybe some probiotics would help? I have been vegetarian (also very little dairy) since Nov. and I had hoped that would help, but it has made no difference. There has got to be some sort of natural cure. Any ideas? Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 Were you tested for a latex allergy? The proximity of the elastic made me ask. My latex allergy showed up about four years ago out of the blue. I did have alot of previous contact with the gloves in the medical field, so I think it was brought on by exposure...just a thought, hope it helps. Stephanie TV dinner still cooling?
