I've had autoimmune urticaria since January 2012. I've tried many different treatments but nothing has fixed the root of the problem. I've taken prescription strength zyrtec for over a year and it is beginning not to work effectively... which was my greatest fear. It's extremely frustrating and depressing. Two books I've found very helpful that discuss all the possible causes and treatment are:
1) "The Autoimmune Epidemic" by Donna Jackson Nakazawa 2) "The Immune System Recovery Plan" by Susan Blum
Next, I will be looking into detoxing heavy metals and see if that has any impact. I feel for everyone with this confusing and uncomfortable condition. View Thread
