What Causes Outbreak Of Hives On Body Post Reconstruction For Breast Cancer?

I have hives all over my body. I am a breast cancer patient. I had the last of my reconstruction 1/25, ten days later I broke out in hives, I have taken Benadryl and gone through 2 prednisone packs, still have hives, now I feel like they are inside me, I have a white patch in my throat and feel like they are in my chest when i swallow.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, the allergic condition may not be steroid responsive and it can be then managed with second generation antihistamine and best would be Tab levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day, routine blood test with plasma glucose level are advisable hope this information helps.
