Susan Richardson Two and 1/2 years ago after my second neck surgery, I broke out in severe hives, and Norco was the problem. I suffered with them afterwards up until a few Months ago, and I hadn t taken Norco since I first developed hives. There was no clue as to what was causing them, they were miserable very single day and every single night. I was relieved they were finally getting under control. About a week ago, I became extremely stressed and they cam back, but not too bad at all. I take Zyrtec, and 2 would not them right out. Now (I can call myself really dumb), I asked for prescription of something for the constant pain I have with my neck. I was given Hydrocodone. I started taking them this morning, and here we go again. I am miserable. I will not take the hydrocodone anymore, but I worry it may take a while to get out of my system. I have whelps all over my back, legs, arms, my eyes and ears itch (as before up to a few months ago) and Zyrtec is not helping this time. I can t see my Doctor until Monday, and I need some suggestions to get me through the weekend, and hopefully some suggestions for the future once the hydrocodone is out of my bloodstream. I don t want to have to keep spending money on Zyrtec, and I certainly don t want to have to start seeing an Allergist and have to get allergy shots so many times week.
