Airborne Hazards Open Burn Pit Registry Qualifications does chronic idiopathic urticaria (Chronic Hives) apply? https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/airborne-hazards-open-burn-pit-registry-qualifications-does-chronic-idiopathic-urticaria-chronic-hives-apply <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As some of you know there is a new addendum being made available to vets that have had chronic issues of asthma, I registered because I was exposed to was listed as qualifying events, but the qualifications don&#39;t speak about Chronic Hiving. I didn&#39;t start having chronic hives until I came back from deployment, I now have to take two shots (one in each arm) to keep me from living a miserable life (once counted over 500 hives on my body some the size of my hand) I have large amounts of documentation showing that I had this in military service after deployment plus the 100s of ER visits to keep me from going in the anaphylactic shock. I have to carry an EpiPen with me. I am grateful Tricare pays for these shots as they are just over 6,000.00 dollars a month. If it were not for this treatment the odds of me being 6 feet under right now are very high. How do I go about seeing if this is part of this program or if there is some other way I can get disability from it?
