Hi all. Just as I am currently writing this I am laying on my back, covered in nappy cream going through my worst outbreak yet.

I have been a sufferer for 5 years now and still can't control it. I'm on fexofenadine 180 and its uses are rapidly fading. I know mine is caused by heat and room temperature, so its less controllable especially as I work in a busy hot office.. sorry Just having a rant whilst I am currently literally covered head to toe in rashes 😥

    I Hear you! I have had a recent outbreak which has lasted for two weeks and in those two weeks have not been able to have a full nights sleep. The last doctor I went to prescribed 300mgs of ranitidine in the morning and 20mgs of cetirizine also in the morning. I also have to take another 300mgs of ranitidine at night. I have found that this combinations works for me and have been hive free for two days! I hope you are feeling better when you read this I know how miserable and horrible this is. Xx
