Hives - Delayed Pressure Urticaria - Part 2

This video is a follow-up to my first video. During the next week, I will be posting my progress or lack of progress while undergoing accupuncture treatments for my condition. As I post this video, it's been 5 days since my first treatment; also my Prednisone is out (as of tomorrow), and my welts are definately returning. Not giving up hope by any means, however, it looks like it may be a tough week ahead.

I´m suffering from MASSIVE urticaria and angioedema since 6 years, tried out everything from accupuncture, TCM to colon cleansing and different diets, got two teeth pulled and so on, nothing worked. 4 months ago I had to deal with immense emotional stress as my Dad was disgnosed with cancer and it suddeny completly stopped. Now that my Pa had a surgery and is on his way to recover it came back as worst as before. Adrenaline?? I just don´t get it. My Docs have no clue either.

@T97Frida Thank you for your reply. I feel for you situation. I'm about to undergo a new serious of test and trials under a new doctor. I have appointments coming up in May, 2011, and will hopefully have some new information to post in the next couple of months. I know it's difficult...please stay positive :)

I have suffered from it for nearly twenty years. It comes and goes. I think I have it somewhere on my body most days though. I may have just got used to it. The best medication I have found that helps me is Zyrtec (Citerzine). It doesn't make me as drowsy as most antihistamines and it doesn't have the long term effects of steroids. It's not 100% but I it will help. I have been on the Paleo diet for 35 days so I've cut a lot of suspicious foods out. I've still got it. I feel your pain.

Thanks for your videos. I have pressure urticaria (immediate pressure urticaria ) especially in spring, summer and autumn. Yesterday it started again.. My hands, feet, trunk, back,legs and face are suffering. What the hell causes that? I take antihistamines but they don't "work" for me.

have been told by 2 doctors that stress is definitely a major factor.... and i did notice personally, the condition started at a time when i experienced a chain of some of the most stressful times in my life, which just so happenend to drag on for the last 3 years in various forms, along with this annoying condition..... i feel like im stuck in a vicious cycle..

I just started suffering from this in Sept 2010 (though I didn't know what it was), I'm 56 yrs old. Thanks for the videos and info.

Don´t know if it happens with you guys but such symptoms are bothering me, in my personal and professional life. Today I am taking a capsule of loratadine 100mg to control, but it is not working as expected. I wish you luck in your research. If I have any positive results by here I'll share with you. Congratulations for your initiative and courage in bringing light to this issue!!!

Hey grizzlemeat...I´m from Brazil and would like to share my experience with you!!!At about 3 years ago I lived a lot of stress moments where I used to work. Since there I realized that I´ve started with a lot of itching in the body and some parts where I was pressing swelled and turned red. Also noticed that after walking my feet and legs swelled up and I felt very tired and sore body. Any place of my body which is pressed becomes swollen and it seems that there is also a kind of fever there

Try ganoderma lucidim or red reishi mushroom tea or supplements and take alot of it about 1800 a day, I have had dpu for five years now and I found something that works and its minimal side effects if any at all. make sure the stuff is organic and of high quality. peace and good luck.

thank you so much for being so open about your condition. Urticaria is doing my head in. I am not sure if it is DPS although when I harried my shopping bags on my arms, I ended up with itchy welts afterwards. However, it doesn't take pressure to bring them on. Thanks so much for being so open. xxx
