Come vivere con l'Urticaria pigmentosa? Si può essere felici con l'Urticaria pigmentosa? Cosa si deve fare per essere felici con l'Urticaria pigmentosa?

Happy, yes. Altered life, yes! It's upsetting to go into public in shorts or a skirt and now my upper arms are pretty affected too, so I do find myself covering up more and more. People stare, kids and adults ask if I have chicken pox and don't seem satisfied when I respond with a brief explanation, "no, I have chronic hives that are pigmented." No pools or beaches, going on boats with friends...I avoid these situations because they're uncomfortable...and they're unfortunately my favorite places to spend free time.
