urticaria
"I am a 25 year old female who has battled chronic idiopathic urticaria since age 2. My hives come and go every few years sometimes 2years sometimes 3years. The older I have gotten the worse they are when they come back... Last batch lasting 7months. 7 full months of 24/7 full body hives. Throughout my course of treatment I have had steroids all the way to kidney rejection drugs. NOTHING WORKED!!!! When my doctor suggested we try xolair I was sceptical. I recieve 2 shots every 4wks. This medication has changed my life. Do I still get hives on occasion YES! But they are so frequent. Xolair is here to manage your condition not cure it. Good luck to all of you!"
