Anyone still bother with these ??

Post by graeme »

As I'm a non tramadol opioid user is there an antihistamine out there anyone uses to protect against opioids causing histamine release from mast cells :?:
Age:33 | Onset Age:19 | Symptoms:burning urethra, deep sore stinging around the perineum, dribbling | Helped By:when flare starts deep relaxing over a toilet to let out dribbling urine, hot bath, rubbing a heat cream on the perineum, Tens with a pad on the perineum, running, medication (solpadol) for pain. Current treatment: PT. | Worsened By:sitting, stressing over it, ejaculation, sometimes alcohol but I risk it. Been feeling a lot better last 6 months about 85% with a few flares lasting about 5 days. No longer having PT. Stretching every other night and I believe time is also a big factor for me

Antihistamines will not stop mast cells from releasing histamine (and a few other pro-inflammatory chemicals). They fight histamine after it is released. Vitamin C also mops up histamine.

Interestingly, quercetin will protect mast cells to an extent.
Good News! The great ProstaQ is BACK at last! You must try it.
