Question: I am experiencing pink almost red itchy scratchy skin and eyes. What could be the problem and how should it be treated or handled?? I am taking the following medications: levetiracetam ER 2 500mg tablets, levothyroxine .100mg tabs a day.sertraline 2 100mg tablets a day. hydroxyzine HCL 4 25mg tablets. premarin .45mg tablet a day.

No changes to medication previously, except the hydroxyzine which was given to me yesterday. The itching and skin color changes have been within the past 2 weeks. my thyroid level was checked by my internal medicine doctor and the result was 1.3. the range he said is .3-4.5. So he isn't willing to bump up my thyroid medication. I experienced the same symptoms last year and saw an allergist who thought my internal medicine was incorrect in not upping my thyroid meds so she upped my meds from. 75 to .100 and that alleviated the majority of my symptoms. But my allergist doesn'tseem to feel this is the same problem. The only changes in food, trail mix with sunflower seeds and peanuts, and I have eaten at Taco Bell twice in the last week and 1/2 and only ordered their doritos tacos.Could it be a nut allergy,because Ihave never had a problem before or what could be in the taco Bell Doritos Tacos that I could be allergic to? Or any conflict in the mix of my current medication?? my internal medicine Dr doesn't have an answer for me and isn't willing to help me any longer and he hasn't given me a reason why. My allergist is out of town until the end of next week and so the on-call Dr was the one who prescribed the hydroxyzine and I have already taken the 4 tablets prescribed per day with no relief and therefore I haven't gotten any sleep tonight. What do you recommend I try to do, or try a different allergy medication, that only a MD can prescribe that is only given by a written prescription order. Because I could email a message to my allergist and hopefully she will be able to respond back to me as soon as possible.
