    Hi my daughter was diagnosed with this soon after she was born. She is now 31 yrs old and living a happy and healthy life. It started to go away once she became a teenager which is what her specialist said would happen. During her child hood she had many flares ups which included large welts which would be irritated more if touched. The only big issues we had were from parents not wanting there kids to be around her thinking they would catch something from her. Parents would ask if she had chicken pox or is it contagious...like if we went swimming. I tried very hard to not make her feel self conscious but I was glad when it had ran its course. I am and come from a hay fever family. My boys have seasonal hay fever as well. I myself have recently been diagnosed with a similar skin disorder where I welt up and itch everyday day. My doctor has no exact reason for this except I produce too much histamine. So I take an allergy pill everyday and will continue to do so. Sorry for the long rant but I wanted you to know you’re not alone. Your handsome boy will be just fine and I believe he will grow out of it like my daughter did.

      Charlene Ackimenko thank you so much! I’m so glad it went away for your daughter, what a relief! I think you’re totally right that our biggest obstacle will be other kids and their parents not understanding his condition. I’m thankful he’s a boy, since they don’t have the same pressure girls do to look a certain way. That must have been hard for your daughter.
      Thanks so much for reaching out! I so appreciate it 😊

    I have this- I’m 27 now and still have marks and flare up but I learnt to not scratch the itch very young and from then on it doesn’t bother me. The marks bothered me more than anything cause they make you stand out but I’ve come to peace with them now 😊

    I’m in such situation with my son. I have been visiting doctors from months and no cure found. Some diagnosed him with scabies, others with mastosytosis. I’m done with the guessing and now I’m scheduling skin biopsy to confirm. We feel lost and alone with this. Thanks for sharing your experience.

    I was diagnosed with this at 2 months old and am 25 now and still have very noticeable lesions all over my body. It does not affect any aspect of my daily life whatsoever and I am generally alot more active than most of my friends in the same age group. Diet is key to helping this condition there is alot i am learning about food and histamine recently that I wish I always knew but doctors dont really touch on that subject too much.

      Dominic Paris YES THANK YOU! When my son was born I started doing a lot of research on food and how it effects our body. Do you have any tips on foods that are good/bad for someone with UP? I’ve tried to eliminate dairy from his diet but unfortunately he’s a very picky two year old who refuses to eat anything healthy.

      @@lindsayparret9629 I am still learning myself but the one thing that you need to be very careful about is peanuts (most nuts actually). Peanuts and anything even touched by peanuts really messed me up when I was younger. Another thing I would watch out for is ALL artificial dye (especially red) fruit punch would send me into a state panic of what my parents would call "pink", when my hives would darken and raise and i would become dizzy and get a pounding headache. Food does not really do this to me anymore, only when I take a super serious blow to the head.

      be prepared for this to be a lifetime thing, he may get bullied and harassed and life may kick him down sometimes just because of this stupid condition but i promise the man he will become will be empathetic to no end, and that's what the world really needs these days.

    The good thing about a child the age of yours having Urticaria Pigmentosa is that in many, many cases when people have it as children they grow completely out of it in circa 10 years or so. I have it as an adult and I have to face that it might only stay the same or get worse as I get older. I had no symptoms of it until I was 20.

    • @lindsayparret9629
      @lindsayparret9629  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Linkenski you are totally right. I’m so thankful he has it now, and has a chance to grow out of it. I’m sorry to hear you’re dealing with it as an adult. Hoping it’s manageable for you and doesn’t get any worse!

    I would like to know any update on your son mine in 1 yrs old and was diagnosed with this rare disease at 2 months old he takes certerizine and Famotidine morning and hydroxzine and Famotidine at night and a compound cromolyn cream on the boils clear ones and itching spots and munipocorin on the open ones that break, has an EpiPen.He is triggered mainly by heat I think products and new foods since he just started eating solids. If he flares up I'll give the med that is next up for the time it is and it goes away in 2min tops.and use vaniply for the parts of skin that doesn't have the spots.which is only his front of legs and arms and cheeks.his trunk of body is completely covered

    My son has it. he got it when he was 3 months. Then it starts to spread until later in his first year. Now he is 16months, the marks pretty much stayed the same except flare ups from time to time. When there is a chemical release some random spots gets bigger and bumpped,and he gets very itchy too. Our dermatologist said the same thing that this will fade and disappear in their late childhood and anti allergy medicines can help with chemical releases, stay cool helps to reduce chemical releases.

    • @jessprobst2579
      @jessprobst2579 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      When he sits down and tries to eat a meal, he gets really bad tummy aches, which lead to his tummy sticking out and it gets harder, then he gets major diarrhea. Then he's ok. I think sometimes he scared to sit and eat because he knows it could cause him pains, and i can't get him to potty train at 4yo and i think part of it is because it hurts his belly.
