urticaria, autism, anxiety, alexithymia

Hergé

Hi,

Sorry for the word salad title. Does anyone else suffer from urticaria (hives, rashes) that have no known cause?

Apparently people with the 3 As tend to suffer with skin issues that have no apparent physical cause.

I'm seeing a dermatologist that can't figure out why I'm having so many issues. I've had allergy tests and have taken various antihistamines that have had zero effect. It's not autoimmune, although I have vitiligo which can be exacerbated by stress.

I've told them that I think it's stress related but they don't seem interested.

Apparently there was a paper written a few years ago that shows that there is a connection but didn't come up with a treatment.

  • I had a rash recently assumed it was a new soap but I've used it since for no reason I have autism(not diagnosed yet but it fits so many things that I've never made sense of and I did my research and realised autism really is a wide spectrum and it opened my eyes so much) and anxiety(diagnosed as environmental disorder which isnt a medical thing as such it's just a cause for anxiety disorders)
