Itching post transplant

[viks2700]

Anybody facing itching issue specially at the back and all reports are normal including lever and this came after 6 years of transplant.

Only hydrocloride gives temporary relief for 5-10 days.

Any suggestions?

Hi viks itching is normally high levels of BUN , blood urea nitrogen . My urea has always been high it does cause itching. I had it awful before transplant but still get it after 23 years of having my transplant.

What medicines are you taking?

[tremarel in reply to viks2700]

I don’t take anything for the itching, but as I said my levels are high they just say take antihistamine. I’m due for my transplant check up tomorrow hope I don’t have any nasty surprises ! X

I remember when I was on dialysis I always had terrible itching and when I reported that to the dialysis nurse/policewomen, they would always scold me for not following my diet. They would then whip out my chart to back up their tirades, but then stop cold when they discovered that my phosphorus values were perfectly formal, so there was no way to explain my itchiness. The same sort of thing may be happening with you, and the cause of the itching, which can have countless explanations, may remain a mystery.

Yes even my doctor gave all possible medicines and now he concluded that you have some food allergy which you need to find it by yourself!
