Does anyone 2yr postop or longer suffer from itching?

I suffer from chronic itching, relieved only by applying ice. I have seen a dermatologist and tried every antihistamine and allergy test known to man. The Dr. does not feel I am suffering from hives. It is only red and raised after I scratch it excessively. A health advisor said it may be bile salts coming to the surface that are not processed successfully in the intestine after my proximal RNY. I am wondering if anyone has experienced anything like this. Please don't suggest dehydration, I've had that ruled out. All the liver function tests I've had done are normal. I am looking for a similar condition in someone postop by at least a year. Thank you for any help I can recieve. Mary Skinner
