Do anyone get hives?

Since my AF started, I have had on and off (more on) periods of cholinergic urticaria. It is a sort of autoimmune response to sweat. Everytime I get stressed (normally emotionally, but exercise and the sun are triggers too) I get intense itching/pickling all over my blessed body.

Now it is getting so bad that I cannot confront anyone potentially hostile or any stressful situation without getting the horrible pain/itching. This is a seriously debilitating and torturing symptom I tell you. I normally have to retreat as soon as possible and once alone take off all my clothes except the underwear (no urticaria in the groin! thanks God you are merciful) and try to calm down until it passes.

Some background information, numerous tests of urine, saliva and blood have confirmed I am in stage 3 of AF and have also thyroid antibodies in one test (in other dont) hypothyroid in other. I am the former Blistering Fate, showing my face! haha

I have read that hives and autoimmunity are related to adrenals and thyroid. Tweet
