[QUOTE="Hound dog, post: 583706, member: 84"] The zyrtec is a good idea. It's something you can try OTC and take daily to see if you can keep them at bay. The vinyl of the mattress can make you sweat.......the pads might be making it worse as they also hold in body heat. What you can use to help with that I'm sorry I dunno. It's one of the things I hate about hospital beds, at least all the ones I've used. I do a lot of lying on my side on them, less body contact. Could be a random bite from some other little insect that gets inside randomly. Could be a medication (no it doesn't matter how long you've taken them, you can develop an allergy at [B]any[/B] time). Could be nerves as in Buck has got you riled enough to put your system in an uproar........and sometimes it can stay that way. The body can attempt to de-stress itself in some odd ways. Don't scratch. Do all you can possibly do to resist the urge. I know, I know, it's horrible......but scratching just brings on more of the darn things. Call your docs and let them know what is going on. You need to get working with them to make certain this is NOT medication related as if it is then you need to STOP taking the medication immediately before the allergic reaction becomes more severe. Don't assume this is just stress. You need to make [B]positively sure this is not [/B]a reaction to a medication. With all the medications you take, this is not going to be an easy task but it can be done. I hate hives. ((hugs)) [/QUOTE]
