Itching

[Heatherr 149]

I'm still pre op, but I have been losing steadily and now itch all. the. time. It's not local but all over and it doesn't matter how much oil or moisturizer I use, I am always itchy. When I was pregnant I had cholestasis, where bile salts build up in your blood and come out through the skin, thus causing extreme itching. There is no rash or anything visible and now I'm wondering if there is a reason or cause from weight loss that would cause the body to build up bile salts. Does anyone else itch all the time or know what could be causing this?

Sorry, I wish I had the answer for you. I'd call your doctor.

Hi--I itch, especially when I get in the sun. I have read that a Vitamin B deficiency will cause this, so I am planning on a B-12 shot since it is quickest and most effective. I know I am not getting my needed Vitamins. It is a weird prickly itch.
