Steroids Not A Dermatographism Treatment

I have had dermatographism for over 6 years. It stared when I was 15. My mom and I spent months trying to figure out what was going on. It was hard being 15 and already self-conscious and then to add a skin disorder to the mix made things even more difficult. When it was finally diagnosed they put me on steroids, which did not help and made me gain a lot of weight. After I was taken off of the steroids, I started taking Zantec and Doxepin twice daily. This has helped to alleviate the itching and discomfort caused by dermatographism.
I am currently seeking a natural treatment for this and (with my doctor's guidance) would really like to stop taking prescription medication. I have read positive things about drinking Noni Juice for this. We well see how well it really works.
