I have suffered from CIU for 2 years now, I am glad I could put it under control without any meds, just by following a very restrictive low-histamine diet, but still sometimes I get my lips slightly swollen. WE NEED A CURE.

$I\'ve been dealing with Urticaria for almost 4 years. The last 4 weeks have been manageable. No meds - having decent results eliminating all grains and dairy for the last couple of weeks$

$I am now taking these medicines. Telfast180mg.Zantac.Nivaquine 200mg. Zaditen syrup. Sometimes they\'re effective and other times they\'re not. I have no idea what triggers my urticaria. Doctors haven\'t been that much of a help. I feel frustrated$

Recently diagnosed my dr put me on Zyrtec.

I have severe DPU & it affects my day to day life..one never knows from one day to the next how severe it will be,

On Zyrtec, Zantac , hydroxazine . Had steriods which worked fine but I hear not too good to take . Had my first Xolair shot 2 weeks ago. Hives are random , no reason why some days better than others . Mostly bad though

I am under medication from last 8 weeks medicines are allegra 180 with ranitidine 150
