hello, i wondering if anyone got hives because of anxiety. I get them constantly and im not sure why i do. I really dont think its because of a allergy, because i never had one. Im really scared because im worried that i might start to develop a allergy or get a allergic reaction. My hives freak me out and everytime im get them I panic and Im not sure if Im having trouble breathing because of a allergic reaction or just cuz of panic. Please help me, this is ruining my life. (I have a fear of eating now too) thank you

I have had chronic hives for the last 15 years. They don't know what causes them allergies or stress. I think both. I have had a million test run to try and find the cause to no avail. I take 10mgs of zertec everyday and that keeps them under control for the most part.
Do yours go away when you aren't stressed? My Dr. told me approximately 5 percent of the population has unexplained Chronic Uticaria (hives)
I hope you find an answer for yours they will drive a person nuts thats for sure.
Blessings,
Kathy

hi, it seems like when i am stressed it comes and when i start to relax, its goes. But, one time i ate a spicy burrito and broke out all over my body. I could feel the heat take over my body and then started to get the hives. I really dont think i have allergies but the thought of a anaplaxtic shock gets me to panic. Thanks for the reply =)
