I was wondering where or who would I go to with regards to getting rapid desensitize treatment (sweat antigen) for cholinergic urticaria?
I went to every dermatologist and doctor that I know, and they been giving me antihistamines that don’t work, including dapsone. One doctor suggested to try immune suppressants, but I fear taking since I have other medical conditions (gerd/chronic cough phlegm) that would make it worse.
Besides the fact I am suffering intense itch when it’s hot , exercise or social situations. Scalp is the worst itch of them all, and the second is the upper body. When I do finally sweat, I feel a lot better, but sometimes it gets embarrassing since I sweat extremely heavily in the back.
Thanks,
AJ

Buy a portable sauna (if your doctor says it’s okay to use sweat therapy) and use it every morning and you will be able to get this condition under control you can purchase on Amazon for around 100

I bought the sauna and can’t tell if I’m sweating or the steam is what making my skin wet. Even so I itch intensly with sauna as well.
It be great to know where to get rapid desensitize

Sauna works good for awhile now thats not working. Antihistamine worked for little but not cure. Sun and heat horrible. Social issues not as bad cause I relax and goes away. This sucks so bad. Going try shot supposed to be strong than pills. Beer works and valuim but feel like zombie.
