Morning all!
I'm hoping someone in the know will be able to help me.
I was diagnosed yesterday with Urticaria. Lovely itchy condition!!
It's driving me insane as it's popping up all over me and has been since Friday. Dr yesterday gave me Eurax cream, but also suggested Piriton. I'm bf'ing my 15 week old dd, and he said it would just sedate her. I am a little surprised he said to take it anyway - anyone else done this, or is there a safer alternative?
I'm also trying to conceive. Not sure if the antihistamines would affect things with a foetus, but does Urticaria itself have an effect on pregnancy?
Didn't get the chance to ask him what I wanted as he left the room after handing me a printout from the internet.
Sorry for rambling...
