Hi everyone! I am new here and I seek some help.

I recently went for an Ige test as I have been having some severe hives reactions. I am still waiting for my test results and the doctor said that for now the reason for my reaction is unclear. I started searching online and looking at some Apps. In all honesty, I feel a bit overwhelmed by the number of resources out there. I am not sure I want to consult so many places in order to understand what causes my allergic reactions and how I can deal with them. I would love to find a reliable tool to rely on. It feels nice to see this forum as it makes me feel like I am not alone but I wonder if you prefer others advice or experience or you also you other tools? Can anyone suggest best ways to manage your allergy? Thank you so much.

Hi MicroMaria, my suggestion is wait until you can talk to your dr to get your final results so he/she can come up with a treatment plan. Unfortunately, cruising the net sometimes leads to more confusion than we need. It can be great to learn about a condition once a diagnosis has been made. In all honesty, treating allergies is not a one size fits all. The treatment should be tailored to the individual's needs. Talk to your dr about the things you have written above.

Take care.
