My daughter suffers with chronic hives and occasional angioedema x3years.
It usually lasts 2 weeks each outbreak, but this last time has been 5
months so far. Symptoms worsen with viral infections which are frequent. We
can control the hives using Claritin
daily. What can we do? What type of lab work can be done to determine
etiology?
Could there be a genetic connection as both her paternal grandfather and
uncle have suffered in the past with hives?
