When I was in the hospital for my C-section, they gave me 50mg of benedryl and 20mg of predisone. That didn't seem to work, as the hives would go away and come back the whole time i was in the hospital. The hives lasted for 8 days. They sent me to see a dermatologist on the 9th day and the hives were gone, except for the bruising left behind from them in my legs. The DERM told me it is probably from my pregnancy and if it lasts more than 6 weeks come back. Its been 5 weeks now, and the hives have come back over the last week , progessing more and more. My lips swell up and i look like Angelina Jolie. My hands and feets sometimes swell and the hives will come and go usually lasting all day and then go away the next. Last night they were all over my body, hands were swollen and this morning my arms just ACHE bad. (But no HIVES) It hurts to move them.. I'm supposed to try Zyrtec next, but i just dont think its going to work..
Any suggestions on what to do?
