New Dermatographia: What is helping you?

Hi - I would like to add that for me personally taking Claritin 1x daily did the trick to eliminate itching and subsequent dermatographism. I weaned myself to once every other and then once every two days. I did this over a month period and finally got off it completely. It took about 7-9 days for any itching to reappear and 10 days for the severe itching and subsequent dermatographism to reappear. I have been dealing with this since the new year after getting the booster end of December ‘21.

Oh and I did go to a dermatologist who reported they have seen a significant increase in reports of this exact thing in relation to boosters. They said it’s a common immune reaction to new antibodies and reminded me that it has been over 25 years (for me) that we have introduced our bodies to three sets of shots within a year. So our bodies will react! I just don’t know for how long 🙁
