As mentioned above (and in prior threads), there is an entity known as stress-induced urticaria or hives. The timing (they come and go, rapidly) suggests that. Next time it happens, try taking an antihistamine like benadryl and see if that helps. Of course, this is no substitute for a visit to a real life doctor. Internet medicine is rather limited. Best of luck.

Oh, and welcome to fluther. Since you are new, and don’t know me, I’ll tell you that I am a doctor. I didn’t just sleep at a Holiday Inn Express last night…
