Late-2003.
Usually when the weather gets wet and a little mild - I'd break out in hives.
Serious hives that would have me scratching for days.
It comes and goes. My mom has it too.
Like mother like daughter (although I'm very 'far' different from her 24" waist at my age!)
It was Oct-2003 when I started breaking out in hives (again)
This time, it was all over my face, neck! It started building up at 6 pm, go on till the next morning 9 am!
To the dermatologist I went.
