Any Thoughts About Itching, Facial Swelling, Body Tingling?

Yes, I'm trying to research some symptoms I have been ha ing for a number of months, I experience episodes of extreme itch,worse at night,do not have any discreet bites, have had some facial swelling, primarily ome sided appearing allergic in nature. This is associated with a tingling,itching feeling over my entire body. Of note I am almost one yr out from c-dif pseudo membranous colitis, I have attempted to eliminate foods,now I'm gluten free x2 mos with no apparent benefit it. My dermatologist states a biopsy did for an irregular mole showed significant amt of eosinophils in the biopsy. Any thoughts?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern this could be hypersensitive reaction, possibility is very likely, if I would be your doctor then I would treat this condition with the following medicines
1) Tab Hydroxyzine 10 mg three times in day
2) Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day
if these fails to response then steroid can be tried but for that complete medical examination and history are must, hope this information helps you taka care and have nice day.
I find this answer helpful
