Hi

That’s the spirit! I admire you for your courage and determination. That’s the first step to recovery. I am sure you must have joined some support group. Please do try the deep breathing exercises, yoga and meditation. Your seven year old (son or daughter?) is your life and reason to live a beautiful life. I know it is difficult but not impossible. You are a survivor I can see. God Bless!

Hi

Thanks for the post! How are you now?

Severe stress causes hormone imbalance and a mild anaphylatical reaction. You are right about it mostly causing breathing problems or heart pounding etc. However rashes and hives also occur. You can get an allergy panel done for common allergens like pollen, dust, peanut butter, egg etc and see if the rash is due to allergy to something.

Please try yoga and meditation and deep breathing exercises. These really help!

Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
