urticaria and angiodema

I have been suffering from chronic urticaria and angiodema for two and a half years. It is belived to have started from a chest infection. I have hives nearly everyday, somedays my lips, eyes and tounge swell up, I get hives all over my body, sometimes covering 75% of my body. My feet swell so badly that I can hardly walk. I live in the UK and have been seeing a specialist dermatoligist, the treatments that I have had are, antihistamines, steroids, cyclosporin, atarax, and trans immunoglobulin therapy, none have worked. I have a adrenaline pen incase my tounge and throat swells. I have no known allergies. What other paths of treatment can I follow???

Hi, Emma.

Look at the chronic hives archives and read the references (Dr Selye & Dr Pelletier) in the stress article on the home page.

Let us know what you learn.

This is a TOTAllY unnecessary condition that will be gone within a year if you practice serious wellness (SR being the most important part of the 3 legged stool).
