Do these attacks necessarily get worse?

Hi I'm new to this site. For the past 10 years i've been experiencing urticaria attacks. Out of the blue, normally in summer. I become a site for sore eye,s. I find taking a few anti-histamines will bring me relief in an hour or two. Trouble is the attacks seem to be getting more severe. GP suggested I always carry anti-histamines with me. Which I do. My question is are the severity of these attacks going to increase. The worst one was last year, when I actually passed out momentarilly. Swollen hands, face etc.

Perhaps I just have to learn to live with the condition?
