I have CIU. Am wondering if others experience urticarial flares when it rains?? Thinking it may be a reaction to mold spores in air.

      No. I want to find the right doctor before getting jettisoned about. I was tested for mold sensitivity about 1 year ago, with no indication of an allergy. But I wonder how many species are included in the evaluation?

    I can't suggest enough to ask your md for a low dose of Doxepin I am a 30 plus years sufferer it get worse when it rains snows and when I get cold. 10-20 mg of Doxepin before bed and I am hive free no injections .

    No side effects it has saved my life.

    Good luck
