Symptom narrative

about one week after receiving the 2nd shingles vaccination, I developed severe hives, redness and itching all over my body. the rash has persisted over 6 weeks with periods of improvement and flare ups. I also had facial and lip swelling, that was assymetric. symptomes were worse at night. I saw my doctor and allergist,. they prescibed xyzal, pepcid and kydroxyzine which provided limited relief. I also took Singulair. most recently they have prescibled injections of Xolair. No new medications, foods, or exposures were introduced during this period. I have nevern had an allergic reaction like this before. ,
