Woke up at midnight because I was really itchy on my legs, went to the bathroom and looked at them, I am covered in these bubbles. So I went to ER, didn't know what they were, although my hubby said thats what it was. Told me to take benedryl. I called on oncall nurse because it goes away and shows up somewhere else, go see my dr, prescribes prednisone. This started another wave of panic for me. Now I am sure I have skin cancer and am absolutely freaked. (Not because of the hives, but am worried about
moles). I go in next Monday and he is going to take some off. I am scared.

Don't be - I have had loads of moles removed and none of them have been cancerous. Re the hives - I had this once and it was awful - sooo itchy and sore! try not toscratch - I found a cold water bottle helped.

Hope all goes well.
