Suggest Treatment For Hives
I am a 40 year old woman who has been suffering with hives for over two years. I began with my family physician and he prescribed antidepressants (lexapro and zoloft) those did not work, so I bagan seeing a dermatologist for the past year. They have had me on allergy medications (benadryl, doxipin, allergra, and zyrtec), now Thye have me on methotrexate, folic acid and just recently added prednizone. I am having a full blown flare right now, they are covering my entire body and am at wits end with these things. Is there anything or anyone you can suggest me try to rid myself of these hives... Thank you

in case if you can't consult a homeopath at present,take following homeopathic medicine.
-gelsemium 6, 5-6 drops in a cup of warm water twice a day.
