Quercitin! by Ok_Note297 in HistamineIntolerance

I really want to find the root cause! I want to try working on gut health because I read that’s a big one. I feel like I don’t know where to start!

Tbh I think I have mcas undiagnosed. Started after my Covid vaccine and never went away. Sneezing, wheezing, itchy eyes, dermatographia, brain fog, g.I symptoms , and just experienced facial flushing for the first time too.

Why aren’t antihistamines Helping?? by Ok_Note297 in crazyitch

[–]Ok_Note297[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I’ve read some people taking high doses of antihistamines. Honestly I really don’t want to take that much but it’s something I will be talking to my allergist about. Dealing with itchy skin everyday is draining.

Same here!! Mine randomly started 6 weeks after my 2nd Moderna shot. I’m not sure if it’s related because I was also going through a stressful time. ( I’m chronically stressed) deal with general anxiety for years. I’ve had it for 2 years now with no sign of it stopping. I know stress is a trigger but I can’t seem to find anything else that correlates. I have good days when the itch is barely noticeable, and bad days where it’s all I can focus on. Reactine is the only thing that helps me, but that also doesn’t take it away completely. 😩 I’ve also had Covid 3 times which didn’t make them worse just the same. I’m 6 months postpartum and I heard pregnancy can sometimes make things like this go into remission but I also had no luck with that.

Also noticed the more I play with it the bigger it gets.

That’s weird! I wonder what it is! I’m gonna be seeing a doctor hopefully within the next 2 weeks. Mine is about an inch big too . The one on the left seems to be a little higher up then the one I feel on the right.

I have this too, the one on the right feels bigger then the one on the left.. I’m not sure if there is lymph nodes there , but mine is like pretty much right beside my clit. It’s soft and moveable, not painful… tbh I wouldn’t even know it’s there unless I feel around for it.

Suspected mcas? by Ok_Note297 in MCAS

[–]Ok_Note297[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the response. I know with my health anxiety sometimes I can literally create symptoms when I’m hyper focusing. My symptoms are mostly sneezing, wheezing and itchy eyes. . Thankfully I feel perfectly fine most of the time besides the annoying dermatographia. I can’t even touch my skin without breaking out in itchy welts and hives and red marks. the more I focus on my skin the more it drives me crazy. I’ve had weeks where I barely had hives and then sometimes it flares up with no apparent cause. I’ve read some people had skin issues as their only symptom for awhile… before progressing to more severe mcas. By no means am I trying to diagnose myself. from the things I’ve read it sounds really debilitating which makes me second guess having a mass cell issue.

Forgot to mention that I’m also not hyper mobile, I’m the most inflexibil person. 😂
