Hello,
I am 52 year old woman who lives in India. I have been itching
for 3 years now. I take antihistamine tablets every 3rd day to get
relief from Itching. If, however, I don't take these tablets, I itch
all over the body and start getting rash over the skin. In last 3
years I have seen numerous doctors, gone through various types of
test, like blood test etc. Unfortunately, all the efforts turned
futile.
Let me give a little insight towards my medical history. In early
2001, few months before I started complaining of itching, I started
getting anxiety attacks. Therefore my doctor prescribed me Restyl
(Alprazolam Sustained Release) Tablets (0.5mg)to curb my anxiety and
Niterest (ZOLIPIDEM TARTRATE)to help me sleep through the night.
It took me two years to realize that may be itching is a side effect
of Alrazolam, therefore slowly I reduced the intake Alprazolam
Sustained Release. Now for last two months, I've ben totally off of
Alrazolam. But there is no respite in my Itching. I still itch in the
same way. Currently I am on Nite(ZOLIPIDEM TARTRATE) and antihistamine
tablets (for Itching).
I read somewhere Liver disease could also cause to Itch. I highly
doubt that I've a liver disease that went undiagnosed for 3 years.
I really don't know what to do ? I am just wondering any help or any
insight in this regard.
Thanks very much
