Brief Answer:
Possible allergic reaction, maybe food related/ gastritis.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Jyothi BL and I will be answering your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows:


1. Itchy hands with upset stomach and diarrhea could be due to possible allergic reaction. Possible food allergy or gastritis could be the cause.
2. Low uric acid is good with normal urine output. Possibly low protein diet. Phosphorous, a little high is not to be worried, as it is possible variation with diet.
3. Take adequate hydration. Antihistamine like cetrizine or loratidine for itching could help. Peptobismol should be adequate for stomach upset. Avoid spicy or sour food. If necessary, proton pump inhibitors like pantoprazole or esmoprazole maybe taken. Possibly, a one off episode and not to be worried about.

Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
