[|Human|] my daughter has been dealing with hives for two years now. We have been to two different allergist in our area and they have not been able to figure it out. her skin and blood tests come back with no allergies at all but she gets hives almost everyday. Is it time to seek a doctor at a bigger facility that might have seen more cases like this. If I take 18 foods out of her system she has responded better but the more food that I add the more she breaks out.
[|AI|]  Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. It should have been a terrible thing to see this allergy going on for 2 years. By what you quote it seems rather like a skin allergy which is unlikely to be food allergy. Food allergy apart from skin manifestations might have some sort of gastrointestinal manifestations like vomiting or diarrhea or pain in the tummy. I have some questions and some suggestions for you. Questions:1. Is there any family history of similar allergies or skin rash?2. Is this rash associated with severe pain in the stomach?3. Is it associated with blood in the stools or black colored motion?4. Is there any blood in the urine?5. Has her blood pressure been monitored in these 5 months and is it normal?6. Are there any bed bugs in her cot or in her school seating arrangements - kindly inquire.7. Does her hands and feet and face swell during attack of allergy or does she have any noisy breathing during high severity? Suggestions:1. A photograph or two will definitely be more helpful if you can upload them.2. You may need to give antiallergics consistently for 6-8 weeks and may be more if she is still symptomatic on with Chat Doctor. 4. She might need blood investigations like C1q esterase inhibitor. Kindly get back with answers and images. You can approach me at the following link. Please find the link below.www.ChatDoctor .com/doctors/
