Q: Itching All Over! Help!

Hi, can someone please tell me why I am suddenly itching all over--from my feet to my hands--my hands are red, and dry lately, but my feet aren't really that dry--i've tried using lotions that have vitamin e and aloe in them, but that doesn't help! I am also loosing alot of weight even tho I am still eating the same, and have bluish brusies on my ankles recently--this all happened at once! Am I crazy or what?
Thanks : Crying or Very sad Shocked Confused

If it weren't for the weight loss & bluish bruises on your ankles i'd think allergy, but bruises & weight loss could be alot more serious.

I suggest that you, make a note of when this first started (or you noticed it) for each symptom, what you weighed (roughly) before, any dietary changes (any, at all!!) any changes to bowel movements, urine colour etc) any other symptoms (headaches, hair loss, nausea, sleep patterns vomitting, etc - here i'm just thinking of things a dr might ask not suggesting or implying anything, ok?!)

then go to the dr or to an er!

Good luck.
