What Could Be Flu Like Symptoms,vomiting,fever,dizziness,lethargy. And Full Body Culminated With Hives Which Lasted Forever?
Hello My husband has been someone ill since August of this year/ Started with flu like symptoms, vomiting, fever, dizziness and lethargy. Culminated in a full body case of hives which lasted forever. Was put on a short course of prednisone and told to take zyrtec. 4 months later he still doesn't have energy and still takes zyrtec to control itching and mild flare ups of hives. Most concerning are fluid filled lumps under the skin which come and go in different spots- often on his head, side and lower back. No one has been able to give any answers on this- sited possible Hepatitis A - tests for Hepatitis b and c negative
