My husband has severe alpha1-antitrypsin deficiency, type PiZZ with very low values og A1AT. He has developed empghyzema in the lower lungs. He is doing quite well, but now he is bothered by a severe itching on his legs. This was very markant before he got the diagnosis, but has mostly been gone the last year due to improved general health.
Does the itching has something to do with cirrhoses of the liver? And if it can, how can we test it? We live in Norway, and there is almost no interest in anything but the lungs here.
