Hives Around Eyes And Pain In Throat!

Hello Everyone,

I am fairly new to this forum and I was just wondering if anyone else has symptoms of hives. I get hives around my eyes every couple of days. Sometimes there along my jaw line. There are usually only one or two at a time, and they itch like crazy.

I have been gluten free for 3 weeks now, and I have not eaten corn soy or dairy products for a few days now. But I keep getting these damn hives. I also have this pain in my throat and was just wondering if anyone has heard of possible hives in the throat. I don't know for sure if they are hives in my throat but it almost feels like I have a canker sore in my throat. It's deep and on the back of my tongue, really far back. I have never had this problem before and I seem to have alot of crazy symptoms going on periodically. They seem to come and go. And the symtpoms never come at one time. They sort of show up and in the next few days there gone and then something else happens to me.

If you could offer some advice that would be wonderful!

Thanks

TIFF :D

In the upper left corner in the search box, type in "rash" and "hives" and see what comes up from previous posts - there is A LOT on this subject as a rash is common.

Luckily your question might be answered somewhere already.

Good luck :)

Hi Tiff,

I'm honestly not following you around... I just keep having answers to some of your questions!

For some reason (and I don't know exactly why) a signficant number of people diagnosed with chronic urticaria (hives) also have Hashimoto's disease.

Hives CAN be internal. And by definition they "come and go" (they shouldn't last more than 24 hours). The feeling in your throat could be hives if it's itchy/sore. Otherwise... if it feels more like you have a lump in your throat... it could just be from the Hashimoto's.

Thank you for the advice "Mother of Jibril". I am very greatful for all of your advice. I'm just trying to get as much info as possible to figure out what is going on with me.

And it seems as if you always have great advice for me. Thank you so much!! Actually, I'm very bummed because I have a 19 month old daughter and my husband and I were planning on

trying for another baby this July. Unfortunately, I have been sick since January and I am on a mission to get better!!! I just want to get to the bottom of this before I get pregnant.

I have done alot of reading about Celiac Disease and infertility and I am really scared. If we are unable to have another child because of my health I would at least like to be able to do things

with my daughter. Some days I'm so exhauseted it's truly hard for me to get from one room to the next. And when I do feel good I seem to get short of breathe quickly.

It seems like I'm fighting an endless battle. I know autoimmune diseases are hard to diagnose, but I am confident that one day I will be back to my old self again.

Thank you again,

TIFF :D

      Diagnosis and further testing Celiac

      By Redanafs · Posted

      Hi everyone. Back in 2022 I had blood work drawn for iga ext gliadin. Since then I’ve developed worse stomach issues and all other health issues. My doctor just said cut out gluten. He did no further testing. Please see my test results attached. I just need some direction cause I feel so ill and the stomach pain is becoming worse. Can this test show indications for other gastrointestinal diseases?

      Thank you. These were the results TTG ABS NUMERICAL: > 250.0 U/mL [< 14.99]  Really don’t understand the results!

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Clearly from what you've said the info on Dailymed is much more up to date than the other site, which hasn't been updated since 2017. The fact that some companies might be repackaging drugs does not mean the info on the ingredients is not correct.

      To evaluate the TTG antibody result we’d need to know the normal range for that lab.  Labs don’t all use the same units.  However, based on any normal ranges that I’ve seen and the listed result being greater than a number rather than a specific number, I’d say yes, that is high! Higher than the range where the test can give a quantitative result. You got good advice not to change your diet yet.  If you went gluten free your intestines would start to heal, confusing any further testing,

      By Bev in Milw · Posted

      Scott is correct….Thank you for catching that!      Direct link for info  of fillers.    http://www.glutenfreedrugs.com/Excipients.htm Link is on 2nd page  of www.glutenfreedrugs.com   Site was started by a pharmacist (or 2) maybe 15-20 yrs ago with LAST updated in  2017.  This makes it’s Drug List so old that it’s no longer relevant. Companies & contacts, along with suppliers &  sources would need to be referenced, same amount effort  as starting with current data on DailyMed      That being said, Excipient List is still be relevant since major changes to product labeling occurred prior ’17.           List is the dictionary that sources the ‘foreign-to-us’ terms used on pharmaceutical labels, terms we need to rule out gluten.    Note on DailyMed INFO— When you look for a specific drug on DailyMed, notice that nearly all of companies (brands/labels) are flagged as a ‘Repackager’… This would seem to suggest the actual ‘pills’ are being mass produced by a limited number of wholesaler suppliers (esp for older meds out of  patent protection.).      If so, multiple repackager-get  bulk shipments  from same supplier will all  be selling identical meds —same formula/fillers. Others repackager-could be switching suppliers  frequently based on cost, or runs both gluten-free & non- items on same lines.  No way to know  without contacting company.     While some I know have  searched pharmacies chasing a specific brand, long-term  solution is to find (or teach) pharmacy staff who’s willing help.    When I got 1st Rx ~8 years ago, I went to Walgreens & said I needed gluten-free.  Walked  out when pharmacist said  ‘How am I supposed  to know…’  (ar least he as honest… ). Walmart pharmacists down the block were ‘No problem!’—Once, they wouldn’t release my Rx, still waiting on gluten-free status from a new supplier. Re: Timeliness of DailyMed info?   A serendipitous conversation with cousin in Mi was unexpectedly reassuring.  She works in office of Perrigo, major products of OTC meds (was 1st to add gluten-free labels).  I TOTALLY lucked out when I asked about her job: “TODAY I trained a new full-time employee to make entries to Daily Med.’  Task had grown to hours a day, time she needed for tasks that couldn’t be delegated….We can only hope majorities of companies are as  conscientious!   For the Newbies…. SOLE  purpose of  fillers (possible gluten) in meds is to  hold the active ingredients together in a doseable form.  Drugs  given by injection or as IV are always gluten-free!  (Sometimes drs can do antibiotics w/ one-time injection rather than 7-10 days of  pills .) Liquid meds (typically for kids)—still read labels, but  could be an a simpler option for some products…
