Cholinergic Urticaria

Cholinergic urticaria not getting better

by

Hello everyone.

I’ve been suffering from cholinergic urticaria for over 4 years now, and my cholinergic urticaria has slowly gotten worse over time. Since it’s summer, I’m experiencing CU multiple times a day. I’ve tried sweat therapy a few times, but it doesn’t really help; and it’s close to unbearable for me.

Recently, I have started breaking out from eating certain foods which also is concerning for me.

My main symptoms of CU is slight wheezing and itching/hives. I have taken antihistamines but they barely help at all. This has started to take a toll on my life a lot.

  1. Hello, Lain. I’m sorry to hear of your pain. Since you’re breaking out from certain foods, have you considered trying an allergy elimination diet?

    • I’ve considered an allergy elimination diet but I’m not sure what foods to eliminate and how to diet for. I’m also concerned that I won’t have enough foods to choose from since I’m a picky eater.

  3. Hi Lani. Try to eliminate things that are contamination your blood system, things like , drug, alcohol even fizzy drinks. It worked for me,

  4. I also have this condition.I am trying to manage it on my own. Antihistamines don’t really help. Im trying to eliminate things in my diet and I have switched laundry soaps to All free and clear. I am not giving up. I am now going to try goat milk bath soap which is supposed to be good for inflamed skin. I am open to any other ideas anyone might have. I am avoiding the doctor since I do not want to go on prednisone.

  5. Hi i did a full body ‘clean out ‘ . i did an organic chicken bone broth cleanse for 2 weeks then ate raw vegan for 3 months doing very light yoga naked ( it slowed the hives coming up not all together but you know) . i also took omega 3 , sea buckthorn oil capsules , vit D , zinc , the 2 most important was a very high probiotic and quercetin !!!!! this stuff not only helped but cured its gone i just eat an alkaline diet and its hot showers and baths again not worrying about walking ( i stopped leaving the house and lost my job ) i even went to france on holiday and it was HOT i came up a lil on my temples and lips but it was tiny and not irritating and gone in mins . i really hope this helps but read a lot into alkaline diets i also suffer from very bad eczema and thats gone down as well . I wish you well i really don’t like doc they have never really helped with my eczema so thats why i choose the natural path and am sooooo glad i did .
