Ok itchy people...my scalp and lower back and butt are driving me crazy...Dr finally put me on prednisone. Soon as it was done the little bumps and intense itch came back. Benadryl helps a little. I'm about to go to a dermatologist but want to make sure it's not liver related. Mostly fires up at night...anyone have a clue??

@jeanne5009 yes the edema definitely affects my itching and I am pre transplant. I also have all those tiny white bumps all over my feet, arms and legs. It does occur mostly at night. I have tried, benadryl and lotions and a certain medication but nothing seems to work.

Bring it up to your hepatologist on Tuesday. He/she should be able to tell you if the little bumps and itch are liver related.
