My story with hives started when I was 11 years old.
One day I went to sleep and the next I woke up with my leg full of hives.
Não sabia o que era, passou…
The next day, when it started to get dark, I started to feel symptoms.
And it was like that for almost a year!
Then it stopped. Out of the blue. I thought I was cured of whatever that was!
One day I took a medicine with dipyrone that I always took, and boom, angioedemas!
Fiz o teste alérgico e constatou a alergia medicamentosa. Beleza, né…Just don't take medicine and I won't have any more – era o que eu pensava.
But then out of nowhere...they appeared again!
Until in 2017, I started having frequent episodes that didn't improve with any antihistamine. But in 2018 I had chikungunya and the treatment ended up inhibiting the symptoms due to the corticosteroids. But as soon as I stopped taking it, guess who came back and never left? Themselves!
And then in my search to try to understand, I discovered UCE.
Um dia durmo bem no outro acordo toda empolada. E vou vivendo assim…..ah agora com 32 anos!!!
