Itching, Rashes, Hives In Body Parts. Working As Nurse. Any Ideas?

I am a 40 year old female. I am an operating room nurse. I eat health and exercise quite frequently. In the last 6 months I seem extremely itchy. I scratch and break out in rashes that at times leak a small amount of water from the rash area. It almost seems like hives in certain area's of my arms, legs and more sever in my hands. I have never had them on my face. I have seen my family physician and been referred to a specialist yet it is taking for ever to get in and it drives me crazy. What are your thoughts? Food allergy, or what do you think

Hi, it appears to be the utricaria, due to allergy to certain things which you are using since 6months, and not before. You only can trace the things used since 6 months. and make a list. Try to find on using which product, you are getting it ,like foods , clothes, hospital aprons, dusting powder, gloves, and soap of the O.T.
Thank you.
