Question 1

unbearable itchy skin in certain weather, is this allergies or something else?

Accepted Answer

Dryness: Skin dryness can cause extreme itching. Try applying lositurizers 2x a day and no daily baths.

Question 2

i have itchy skin all over my body after i take a warm shower/ weather changes. i'm taking clartin every other day for months. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Try moisturizing: Antihistamines typically don't help widespread itching unless you have been exposed to something to which you are allergic. Dry skin is notorious for causing itching, and can be exacerbated by hot showers or changes in weather. Try taking cooler showers and afterward liberally applying moisturizer while your skin is still damp. See a dermatologist or allergist if your symptoms persist.

Question 3

i've been having cramps on my lower left side, dizziness, nausea, intense itchy skin mainly with weather change &bad head aches. what's wrong with me?

Accepted Answer

PMS vs. migraines?: Now, tell me....itchiness, lower left crampiness and such happening in the face of weather changes or are the headaches doing that? Do you have headaches with nausea and dizziness WITHOUT abdominal symptoms ever and do they occur with or before weather changes? If so, then, you may have an entity known as barometric headaches....treated relatively the same as migraines but they can be challenging.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

Cholinergic hives: Likely cholinergic urticaria/hives, see a doctor for possible treatment options (such as antihistamines).

Question 5

itchy skin on my back, sides of stom and back of neck. no bumps or redness unless i scratch then feels hot after..

Accepted Answer

Dermatographic: This may or may not be a chronic situation.  Try taking antihistamine to see if it helps.  Sometimes dry skin can also cause this type of reaction and thus applying a moisturizer &lt;3 minutes after bathing may help.  If problem persists, see derm or allergist.

Accepted Answer

Sun allergy?: Some people can be allergic to the sun. The only way to prevent this is to cover up and try to avoid exposure as best you can. antihistamines don't really work for this.

More information: The symptoms of leukemia can include, fevers, fatigue, easy bruising, nose bleeds or gum bleeding, enlarged lymph nodes, recurrent infections, headaches and sometimes a rash. A high WBC count can be caused by leukemia, but those wbcs will look abnormal (called blasts = leukemia cells). Your CBC might also show anemia and low platelets. A bone marrow is the gold standard if your doc is concerned.
