chronic hives - an update

I posted a couple of weeks ago that I have a chronic hive condition occuring on my neck and jaw area. Well, I had been on the alkaline drink for about 3 months then, about 1=2 times per day. I increased it to 2-3 times per day and now it seems my body temperature is really messed up.

I'm fine, then one minute later I'm red hot, sweaty, and coming out of my clothes. A few minutes later I cool down to the point I begin to feel cold air around me and I can't cover up fast enough. This goes on day and night.

So, I've stopped taking the alkaline drink the last 4 days and the temperature fluctuations are still ocurring. I don't even know if the keip or the pickling lime, etc are the problem.

I don't know if I really need kelp or not, but I feel I do need a good source of calcium after years of depleting that mineral with bad diet, sodas, etc.

What's a person to do?
