I have been experiencing hives all over my body, very itchy, painful, hot, I’ve been taking Benadryl and Pepcid regularly but it really doesn’t help at all. The only thing that helps is steroids. I’m seeing an allergist and she needs me off the steroids so she can do some tests and now I’m completely covered in hives and absolutely miserable. I’ve used calamine lotion, hydrocortisone, epsom salt baths, baking soda, apple cider vinegar, oatmeal, everything nothing helps. Does anyone have any ideas what I can do? I can’t sleep, I’m just miserable!
