What Causes Itching All Over The Body?

I noticed it about three weeks or a month ago. I itch all over my body, though mostly my torso. It comes and goes. No visible rash, no bumps, no bites. I recently had a hip replacement surgery and was taking pain meds, but not in the last month. I take some vitamins and minerals, but nothing I haven t taken before. I take methimazole for hyperthyroid. I m staying with a friend. I checked her laundry detergent - all natural. Any thoughts?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, what the symptoms you have could be due to some allergic disorders it may be due to emotional stress, hypersensitivity, what ever may be the cause of allergic disorders but it ca be treated with Tab Loratadine three times in day, such reaction could be self limiting too and you can wait for that too, hope this information helps.
