Thread: Hives And Being sick?

About 6-7 weeks ago i had gone to my room to take a nap and when i woke up my body was itching all over, I had my sister scratch my back when she noticed the hives on my back. I've never been allergic to anything ever and i hadn't ate, drank or put anything on out of the normal. About a week and a half ago i noticed they had gone away finally but last night i got sick and they came back and they are killing me right now, i'm starting to get worried and i have no idea whats causing it. Every time i get sick they appear again?

sounds like a food allergy
they can appear at any time to any food

I had a case similar to yours. I would randomly get hives out of nowhere. Here's what I learned: There are tons of allergens out there trying to attack you. Your body makes tons of things called antihistamines which fight them off so you don't have reactions. It turns out that when your body is resting (eg at night when it is going to repair itself for the next day, and probably in your case when you are sick) the production of antihistamines drastically decreases to give the body more energy where it needs it leaving you more susceptible to allergens. This is probably why you get hives out of nowhere. I used to have that happen a few nights in a row, but now they magically stopped, and I suspect that yours will as well. Keep calm and carry on.
