Liver disease itching: What helps?
Does anyone have info or treatments for itching? My scalp and lower back have a very itchy rash. Tried ointment shampoo, antihistamine and steroids...wont go away. I am Stage 4 liver cirrhosis. Dermatologist and PVP are stumped.
Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Transplants Support Group.
I’d love to go to mayo clinic but to far. When I was told I had autoimmune help was in a study for it at the Scottsdale az. Loved the place
I am also stage 4, the itching started about 1/2 years ago. Lower back, calves on legs, and gentials. Worst inching I ever had. Try hydroxyzine. 25 mg. Also was prescribed cholestyramine powder. They both have helped somewhat but I do get where I want to scratch like crazy.
