Hi all,
First thanks for everyone's posts here. They have been helpful since I was just diagnosed with this as well. I've always had allergies. Started allergy immunization back in April of 2008 through Aug 2008. Then....labor day. It stared with swollen and painful (very painful) feet and hands. Then eye, then the hives joined in the fun. It's been 5 weeks now, and I've been to 4 different doctors. Finally back with an allergist.
My feet swell so bad at times that I honestly can't walk. Really difficult to cut a vacation to Disney a day short with your son because you can't get out of bed without falling down. I've had hives and the swelling in random places from head to toe. Really sucks.
I am under a lot of stress at work, and deep down, think this must be the real cause. Dr just put me on more steriods, singular, claritin, Alegra 180, and zantac. I justg started this plethora of drugs today...so if anyone is out there, wish me luck.
If anyone has any other helpful homeopathic remedies, please let me know. This is truly debilitating, and being in my 30's that really scares me...
