Suggest Treatment For Allergic Itching On Body

I have previously had surgery a week ago for a cyst on my right ovary. I forgot to tell the doctor that I am allerrgic to dermabond. I have been having severe itching every since. I have tried Benadryl cream and hydrocortisone cream which made the itching worse. I have tried oral Benadryl which made my sinus flare up and had me congested afterwards. I have tried Vistaril which made me sick with nausea and vomiting. I have also had a steroid shot which helped for a couple of hours but the itching has came back. I am currently taking a Medrol dose pack and Zyrtec and I am still itching. I have made an appointment with an allergy doctor but could not be seen until the 19th. What can I do to stop itching, I have scratched so much that I am bleeding and the medications are not helping.. please help!!!

It is difficult to say about the cause for itching without seeing you.But looking to your complaint if you are permitting me as your doctor, i advise you to take levocetrizine +montelucast once a day. Apply clotrimezole powder twice a day might help you.
