Autoimmune Hives with MS?

Hi All. My husband got his MS diagnosis almost a year ago. We noticed about that time he started to get hives. it started localized on his arm and then through time he gets them everywhere! There is nothing different about his diet, detergent or anything! Whenevr i do my research it just says its from medicine but he was having the hives before his meds. I did find an article saying theres a such thing as autoimmune hives and wondering if anyone else is experiencing this with their MS?

  1. Hi! I hope others who have had a similar experience chime in! I wanted to let you know, one of our sister communities, Chronic Hives, has an article about causes you may be interested in reading: https://chronic-hives.com/causes. It does mention autoimmune reaction as a potential cause. There is an older forum with a few responses about MS and hive here: https://multiplesclerosis.net/forums/hives.
    I hope you're able to find some relief for your husband! Take care - Kelsey, MultipleSclerosis.net team member
