Has anyone experienced all over itchy skin? I feel like it might be a sudden intolerance to eggs?

Are you still on narcotic pain meds? They can cause itchiness.

My surgery incision points are still rather itchy. I use anti itch cream on them and it seems to help.

It sounds like you might be having an allergivc reaction to something that was given to you for the surgery or post-surgically.

IMMEDIATELY go to the initial care or the ER. Above all, do NOT scratch. They can make the itch go away immediately but you will only make it worse by trying to wait it out.

My face itches like crazy. I'm also breaking out and my skin is kind of sticky. I'm headed to the dermatologist soon.

I totally forgot: itching is a side effect of some pain meds, mostly opiates. I don't know if you're taking any, but I thought I should mention it.
