Those doctors who dont give validation to itch specialists are severaly ignorant of how itch destroy your mental health as well so thank you Dr. Kwatra you are saving lifes cause it can get so severe that you wont keep living in a hell of itch torture any longer after years of severe itch neurophaty 😢... this doctors or their family members should get itch than they will come to doc. Kwatra to save their lifes
I’ve been itching for 6 1/2 years; no outward signs of a skin condition other than small skin blisters on my torso, breast, and shoulder area. My PCP put me on Lyrica at bedtime and Allegra 2x/day. Currently not helping much at all, so I’m on steroids for a week. How do I find a REAL solution?! I’m so tired of itching! I have Hashimoto’s and am currently working to correct my gut as well.
@@jenfugo No, I haven’t heard of them and he hasn’t suggested anything other than meds and a dermatology appointment that lasted 5 minutes. :) I also have Keratosis Pilaris and gluten-sensitivity. I’ve gone totally gluten-free for the past year and half. It comes and goes. Thank you for replying! I enjoyed Dr. Kwatra and would definitely visit him if I lived in his area!
This was fascinating to me. I was recently diagnosed with chronic idiopathic urticaria (dealing with since January). I also have vasovagal syncope. I pass out when I hit my knee or elbow in just the right spot. I also pass out with extreme intestinal distress. I feel like I have more GI issues than most people. Is all of it connected to each other? 😮🤯😳🤔

Have they ruled out Prurigo Nodularis and Grover's disease?

Just wanted to let you know I first heard you on the Thyroid Answers Podcast with Dr. Eric Balcavage. Great conversation!

So if it is IL 31 caused, do you recommend Nemolizumab?
And if not, why not?
(Question to both of you).
Hey Rob... there are MANY factors involved, so it's unlikely Jen can recommend anything without the bigger picture for you personally. -Team JF
