    Itching

    I had my surgery about 10 months ago and have developed a rather horrible reaction to something, the reason I think it's related to my lapband is because my sister also got this about 6 months post op. I developed a lumpy rash (similar to insect bites) between my thighs and on my upper arms and put it down to loose skin as I had lost a fair amount a weight from these areas. It has gradually become worse and is now all over my body - the lumps not so much but the itching is everywhere. I have never had allergies in my life but it almost seems like a severe allergic reaction. It seems to be worse of an evening/night and is bad enough that it wakes me up. I have tried using special sensative allergy washing powder but this hasn't worked. It's so bad that I've scratched myself so hard that I'm worried I'm going to cause an infection as there are wounds from my scratching. The only thing that seems to sooth it temporarily is tea tree cream but it's only a temporary fix... I was wondering if anyone else had experiences this or could help
