  1. Thank you for this video. You have saved my life! I am looking for a doctor to help me in my struggle. If you know of someone near Saskatoon Saskatchewan. I would greatly appreciate the lead

  2. Is MCS responsive to medications like Dapsone, Doxipen, Omalizumab, Cyclosporine, any combinations there of, plasmapheresis, IGg therapy, LDA Therapy ( Low Dose Allergen Immunotherapy)? Especially if becoming antihistimine resistant, or at least during a flare. What is your experience with these treatments? Why have I found litle info on them in MCS online forums/articles. They are listed under Chronic Urticaria. Is there such a big difference?

    1. Virginia, thank you for your inquiry. I cannot respond to your question since I am not a partaker of those medications and therapies. If you are a member of FB, you may want to contact members of various MCS communities about these things. I am strictly an alternatives advocate at a personal level. There is no cure for MCS; there is only alleviation of symptoms because no one seems to want to get to the root of the problem in Western medicine. Non-exposure is difficult but the necessary route.

      If you are interested in Chinese/Tibetan Medicine, look into this for the hives. http://www.acupunctureforskin.com/articles-002.html
