High Fevers Caused Dermographic Urticaria

I wonder if there could be a link with dermographic urticaria and bouts of unexplaiined high fevers?

Viruses that cause fevers can also cause hives. When you have a fever, does stroking the skin cause the hives?

A link between dermatographism and fevers is possible, although I generally have not heard about any strong corelation between the two. Dermatographism can have many triggers, mainly because we don't really know why it occurs.
