Hi F-A, so exposure to sunlight worsens your hives. I used to find that, esp on my upper chest - the bony area from collar bones downwards used to drive me mad with itching in the sun. Cooling off in the sea was sooo soothing.I'm afraid I can't remember how much my allergy issues had declined by the time I started HRT a few years postmenopause, so can't help with your wondering whether HRT would help. But if you've read Jaylow's posts on the allergy issues you'll know she's been on HRT & I think suspects an association with aspects of/changes to her regimen. If you're in a position to have a consultation with Dr Tina Peers or Newson Health, I think that might prove helpful. Perhaps depends on how much you felt the info in the links to their articles might be relevant for you. I believe RebJT has posted that she's seen Tina Peers.QuoteDue next month for my next consultation to see if I return to having the injectables I have been on for a year, I just know I have no quality of life right now with this. It dictates everything I do or even think about doing and it really is quite debilitating and exhausing I feel for you & Jaylow & RebJT's posts on the problem also show what a horribly debilitating & disruptive problem it is. Maybe a PM to one or other of those members might help you decide on next step if you haven't chatted to them already. I think now you've made more than 10 posts you should be able to send PMs.Keep posting, don't be alone with the worry of it.Wx

as I'm more established I shall contact others as I cannot cope with this anymore !!!
