Can you believe it? I don't have hives! I have erythema multiforme (EM). There's really nothing they can do for me unless I am in respiratory distress. The dr did give me 60 mgs of prednisone and I was back from the ER in an hour. I still itch and I slept on the couch clutching a bag of frozen green beans.
I'm not officially on steroids. I was given one dose and told to see my regular dr. So I'll see what my primary says at 11:15.
I am allergic to poison ivy, but this is completely separate. I've had hive issues throughout my life. I need to find a competent allergist. My current one is a moron. He should just stick to asthma.
Wanna hear God laugh?

We are a family of four, living in DE. I (Posey) and Hortense (hubby) have lived in DE for 13.5 years and still haven't hit all of the true Delaware experiences. The children are now 7 and 4 and we want to show them their home state. Now is the time. This is our year.

So you aren't contagious and you are on steroids? And unless you stop breathing everything will be fine in a couple weeks.
Maybe you are not allergic to Poison Ivy? Maybe it is just genetic?
How long on the drugs?

The Wife likes her's in PA. Perhaps you should drive up here. ;-)
Good luck at the appointment. We're still waiting for Little Sister to get out of surgery.
Sorry to hear it's gotten this bad and painful! I hope you got good news at the dr. this a.m. and that Trinks is feeling better, too.
