Itching And Prickling In Skin. Having Hyperthyroidism. Remedy?

Hi, I have been having itching & prickling for sometime now. It started out back in August 2012 when I was diagnosed with Hyperthoroidism. I have been seeing a Dermotologist but I can't use any steroid creams or ointments it can cause my skin to break out. I'm planning to see an allergist to find out what is causing the itching & prickling. Is their anything I can use over the counter for now besides Hydrocortisone?
