Tomorrow I have a PET/CT scan and blood work. Please pray for no new cancer. I am also having blood work for a couple of things that could be giving me chronic hives. I have had hives for 16 weeks and I am miserable.
Thanks and hugs
Lisa

Hi Patricia,
My Mom had breast cancer too. I saw a segment on CBS nightly news that said if you carry the BRCA 2 gene you are more likely to develop certain cancers and one of them was bile duct cancer. I see my oncologist on June 18th and I want to ask him if I should be tested for the BRCA 2 gene.

Re: Chronic Hives (18 replies, posted in General Discussion)
Finished ten days or prednisone and hives came back two days after finishing steroids. The biopsy came back negative for vasculitis. They have increased my doxypin to 50 mg in the am and 50 mg at night and then I take Benedryl about 4 times a day. I am covered in hives. I don't know what to do next. I am miserable. Help!
