I know someone who is as well! They get a rash/hives. What about you?

That's me too. I get itchy, deep red hives at contact points and exposed areas. Its annoying but manageable.

If enough of me is exposed/come in contact with a trigger, I start to exhibit shock symptoms. Has only happened with swimming to date, but my allergy has gotten worse over time, so I expect I may experience some lightheadedness on a cold day in the future.
