Personally we have been quite lucky as a family in that none of the children have ever had allergies to anything. With six children I think we hit very lucky in fact. It is only now that it is in fact myself that is having issues.
Since we moved home I have purchased so many new cleaning products etc that I think something must be affecting my skin. I keep breaking out in hives. I wasn’t even sure what it was at first because as I said, we have never had any issues.
A slight itch here or there has quite often led to really annoying blotchy patches all over my upper arms, stomach and legs. The pharmacist said it was definitely hives and to get them checked out with a doctor. Right now in the middle of a pandemic though I worry about taking up time and space that may be needed by someone with more pressing issues.
