The illness occurs when I am nervous or when I do something physical, i.e, when the heart beats harder and when it gets hot...The whole body starts itching. The doctor said it was an allergy and prescribed Zirtek, I was taking it for one week, but no results... This allergy occurred to me three years ago, appeared only in winter, and this year is particularly harsh and hurts me every day, I even wake up at night because it becomes too hot and I start itching even in a dream... I do not know what to do.
