Ut oh!

Right on the heels of my poison ivy incident, I have huge hives all over my body. When my PCP asked me if I was taking any new drugs, my heart sank. I told her about the LDN. I also told her how well I am doing on it, and how much it has helped me, so she didn’t say to stop taking it. I now have a new ten-day tapering course of Prednisone. I don’t think it is the LDN that is causing the hives because I was taking it for three weeks before I got them. I really hope that the hives are a result of my body still being upset about the poison ivy. When I got home, I Googled the word hives
, and I found out that twenty percent of all people will have a bad case of hives in their lifetime, and that in most instances the patient never finds out what caused them.

So now I am a scratchin’ and a hopein’.
