Hello @mvoge. Oh my goodness, intense itching is the worst! I had that with some of my chemotherapy and medications…that was worse than any of the other side effects, I swear! I’m so sorry you’re having to endure that! Does anything bring you relief? I hope you find some answers with your labs and testing that are come in up!

I’m sure you’ve read everything available but I found some sites about possible causes of high eosinophils and how to reduce the levels. I know…if it were only that easy!

Do antihistamines help at all? I had high eosinophil reactions to mosquito bites…do to a heightened immune response from my newly transplant bone marrow cells. I saw an immunologist/allergist who told me one of the first lines of defense after trying Benadryl or Claritin, is taking a proton pump inhibitor such as Pepcid. It worked to reduce the load. Just idea for you.

Good luck with your tests and finding answers!! Let what you find out, ok?
