4 weeks after my daughter was born i awoke with very itchy skin, so itchy, most could not fathom. After about two weeks I realized, the situation was not going away. After much ado, i have found out it is dermatographia. It is very severe, and very rare to last this long (over one year). I have to take a lot of antihistamines, and am always uncomfortable. If I touch my skin, or if anything does for that matter, it leaves hives or even perfect impressions of what touched me (like a hand print, with all the finger prints and everything). We have moved the dog outside, and I clean the house like mad every day, and the situation will not remedy, it is shutting down my immune system and hurting my metabolism, and I am now gaining weight. Doctors only give me MORE antihistamines. Do you have any ideas!?
Dermatographia?
some people who do not respond to antihistimines and do not want to take presidone are prescribed doxepin for chronic hives. Its an anitdepressant that is very affective for allergies. Ask your doctor.
Reply:Prednisolone 5mg twice a day for 10 days should work.
