Hi Patty,

About five years ago, pre bc diagnosis, I had a bout with chronic hives (five months to be exact). I had numerous blood tests, to test for a myriad of different diseases and ended up with a liver biopsy (liver was fine). And of course, I still had the hives.

Anyway, I started going to an acupuncturist who recommended I try a diet called, The Fat Flush Plan, which basically had me eating, protien and vegetables. After being on the diet for two weeks, my hives were gone and I haven't had a problem since.

I guess the point I am trying to make is that is appears that our bodies do, "run" better with protein and vegetables. I try to stick by this diet all the time, however... well I am only human.

If you have any questions, let me know. Here is the book info:
