For Urticaria "I'm getting my first Xolair shot today. Currently, I am covered in hives from head to toe, itching severely. My last hive outbreak was in June 2016, and they went away after 6 weeks on their own. I'm unresponsive to all the medication: prednisone, Zyrtec, ranitidine, Singulair, gabapentin (for itching), hydroxyzine, Benadryl. I take them all when I have a flare-up. I'm absolutely miserable and call my allergy specialist daily. This current flare-up has been going for a few days, and I had some Xolair waiting for me in the office since June. I'm excited that this may be the cure that I need to prevent this misery. Will keep you posted."
