-it only happens after dinner.
-it happens like 5 minutes after dinner.
-cortisol creams don't calm it, benedrol pills work.
Thanks you so much

Answer 1

is dinner the only meal you eat at home?
do the hives happen EVERY time after you eat dinner?

keep a food diary, to keep track of the foods you are eating, and it might not be food related, but maybe soap related

Answer 2

You need to cut out anything that isn't natural-wheat, milk, and sugar (unless its natural) for about a week. Slowly add one item back into your diet and keep a journal of what you eat and what reaction you get. If you aren't getting any reaction from food than it could be environmental and you need to see what in your house or apartment that could be causing the itching and hives. If all else fails, go see an allergist and get a skin patch test done to see what could be causing the problem.

There is a possibility that you are reacting to a release of stress. When you come home from work at night, you are so stressed out during the day, that is your bodies way of releasing. Just a thought.

i can relate..i also had food allergies and took benedrill as well..it works but the drowsy factor was inconvient for me..i ended up going to a doctor and the doc prescribed hydroxizine..it helped..i don't get the hives anymore ever since then..

Answer 4

this is a big area if u drink certain drinks during meals or have the same bread butter what ever everyday it may cause your allergy.

Answer 5

It has to be something you are eating or drinking or eating dinner around.

just because something is natural doesn't mean you can't have an allergy to it-
