seems to be the best medicine (uh, thanks Hal and Norm). I’m still not hive free (a small one is trying to break free on my left forearm as I type), But I am off the prescriptions. Managed to step down from the steroid the second time just fine, and just stopped taking the other one because I didn’t like the side effects. Still taking an over-the-counter antihistamine, but that seems to keep most of the buggers at bay. Almost feel back to normal, whatever that is!
