A member asked:
Do recurring hives suggest a problem with your immune system? i have had them 5 weeks, steroids improved them, but didn't get rid of them completely.

See below: You could have an allergy, autoimmune disease such as vasculitis, or celiac has rarely associated with this. You need a workup in light of your symptoms. Start with your primary, but you will probably need to be seen by a allergist and possibly a rheumatologist as well.
