Somewhat nervous that this might be an early sign of thyroid failure or thyroid-related autoimmune disease, which runs in my immediate family — although I know rationally it's way too early to put much weight on that
FWIW it's these experiences that make me feel that we've done a terrible thing in cutting off opioid access for chronic pain patients (vs just focusing on avoiding them for one-offs, e.g. post-surgical care, the on-ramp for much of the overdose problem)
When you're enduring something really really aversive there's a HUGE difference between "this never stops, there is no way to make this stop" and "I have to wait a while, but soon I will feel better for a few hours." It really makes so much more awful stuff tolerable
Vain AF, but I am not completely loving roaming around Venice Beach in July looking like a probable Patient Zero amongst all the professional hotties. Maybe I need to just lean in, terrorize some fellow Whole Foods shoppers, make a person or two reconsider their vaccine stance
The hives aren't resolving at all. I tried to hold off from medicating this morning (woke up itching around 3am, managed to successfully get back to sleep), but now I'm having difficulty not breaking the skin & bleeding from all the scratching. Time for Urgent Care, methinks 
Really good news: the hives started to calm down by late morning (still red and itchy, but the welts began to flatten), then slowly disappeared throughout the day. Almost entirely gone now. I haven't taken anything for them in ~10 hours, so I think this might be over!
Thanks to everyone who reached out with ideas about what this might be and what might work for it, esp those who've dealt with this before! This was truly an awful few days; I don't know how you guys with multi-week symptoms plowed through without ripping your skins off, frankly!
Well... You can go nuts with the diphenhydramine dose without long term side effects (except irreparable cognitive impairment) 
Already by the mid-90s I heard med school lecturers in pain management complain of agencies breathing down their necks about management of chronic sufferers.
Hell's effectiveness as a myth is not so much about the pain it inflicts as it is the eternal inescapability of it.
Many are already suffering. The false stat tossed around after years of lobbying by rehab nonprofits is "80% of heroin users start with legal opioids." It's not even wrong, and also wrong. People rarely become addicted when using legal medicine *for pain*. https://reason.com/2018/03/08/americas-war-on-pain-pills-is …
If you survey 100 addicts, a lot of them will SAY they started with legal drugs. Even if all of them did, limiting access to reliably potent pills is the OPPOSITE of what's needed to save lives. People DO make choices. Govt wrongly conflates the addiction rate with overdoses.
