Urticaria 

I have been informed by my immunologist that I probably have chronic urticaria, meaning my hives and little contact dermatitis blisters will probably be a permanent feature of my list of interesting "body trips".

Has anyone heard of any drug studies that address meds to stop there reactions, or to make them less severe?

I've been getting those dermatitis blisters for quite a while. I used to get them around my waist but for the last few years they're on my arms and chest. I'm sure they are caused by the heat because I only get them in the summer.

I haven't heard of any kind of medication for them but I do use antihistamines and they help a lot.
