i recently had to be rushed to a&e with anaphylactic shock. I am not an alergic person and to date am only allergic to penicillin. I came out in this terrible inflamed red rash, all my eyes closed due to the swellin and my tongue was huge and ny throat started to close. i stayed in hospital for a bit while the sorted me out. they then sent me home with antihistamines and steriod tablets. After a couple of days the rash had gone and i was fine. But now the tablets have run out it is back with vengence. the rash is everywhere except my face and hands. the doctor will not perscribe the steroids that the hospital gave me and has sent me for blood tests and tested my poo. But all come back ok. How can i get rid of this rash. it is making me feel so down and under the weather. i am taking benedryl to try and help but its just helping with the itch. Does anyone have any ideas….as i have not changed anything in my routine, foods etc.

When I was little and during my teenage years I’ve been okay with me swimming in our public pools and in the ocean (cause I live in Hawaii). But not that I’m 20 and ever since I’ve hardly ever gone swimming to those places, I’ve recently developed hives under my arms and on my face and the side of my bikini area on my thighs. Its really irritating me cause I want to go swimming with my friend but then I’d have to reject it cause I now develop this whenever I go swimming in the pool and the ocean. It is just an allergic reaction to the water or my body isn’t use to it anymore? And is a possibilty that I can never go swimming again because of it? Are there any treatments that I can take as well before I go in the water?
Another weird thing about it is that when I was little I developed hives by eating foods that included chicken, eggs, shrimp, and crab. And my doctor prescribed me with medicine to treat it. But ever since I started eating those foods and have not developed hives to the point where I just stopped taking my medicine, I thought my hives went away already. But now when I go swimming in the ocean & pool, I’ve started to develop my hives from there?!? I also do have Asthma and Senstive skin but I was hoping that if I try to go swimming in those places more my hives would go away as well. Any suggestions that might work?
When I swim in the pool my hives are not as bad as I get little tiny bumps on my body. But when I swim in the ocean, my hives are really worse cause they get swollen and red and ichty.
Yeah I usually shave by my bikini areas and under my arms of course. And usually those are the places that really get swollen than the rest of my body such as my stomach and arms for example.
I do take baths everyday and it doesn’t effect me having hives. Weird thing. I only get hives when I go in the ocean or pool (mostly the ocean) but during a shower/bath I don’t get hives.
