    I wish I had more to add. Sounds like it’s time to move on from the allergist to an autoimmune disease specialist. I am praying for relief for you. This is just too awful. xox

    Oh Lisa,
    I am so sorry about the itchy hives. I have no suggestions but I hope others will have something to say that will help.

    Hi Lisa,

    I’m so sorry you are still feeling so lousy. I’m praying the dermatologist will help relieve your itching.

    Hugs & Love,
    Mary

    Hi everyone,
    This is the last test the Allergist ran for my chronic hives. I asked for this test after doing some research. As you can see under 10 is normal and I am over 35. The allergist said she doesn’t know what to do so she wants to refer me to a Dermatologist for a possible skin biopsy. I already have one autoimmune disease and my mother had four.
    Any thoughts or suggestions?
    I am so miserable and frustrated.
    Lisa

    The CU Index test is the second generation Functional Anti-FcER

    factors in their serum which supports an autoimmune basis for
    disease.
