I've had hives for at least three weeks now. Which really sucks, what with the itching and paying lots of money for antihistamines and steroids and creams which don't even help... and I can't think of any triggers, anything I've done differently to cause this. so my mom (a pharmacist) has been investigating and thinks it could be a yeast thing.
