Bad reaction to insect bites and HSP
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hi,
I'm interested in how many people with HSP also suffer bad reactions to insect bites. Insect bites are listed as one of the possible causes and I believe may have started my HSP. Please let me know if you have HSP and react badly to insect bites e.g. excessive swelling/pain/redness.
Thanks

For hsp sufferers with pets I advise a monthly trip to vet for animal and house flee treatments or no pets at all.
for those with kidney disease we think 15 power foods diet helped. I got kidney friendly diet books from Amazon.

In October the renal dept in Glasgow called her wanting to see her immediately for biopsy and steroids. Fortunately they held back when they saw her and she told them no rash, no cold symptoms and feeling better. Her next appt the level had dropped slightly so agreed to hold back. She for other reasons came home in November. She has not had rash or other symptoms since Sept. On her return she was well and has sustained this, returned to Glasgow a week ago. She has not had any hsp symptoms but has not kept up with renal appts because of moves so no conformation, but I know my daughter and she is well again.
this reinforces my belief it was insect bites that caused it all, protected from pet fleas she has recovered.
