Hi, I wrote some time ago that I had severe intractable itching. I asked my haematologist about it and he acted as if he had never heard of it before in relation to bone marrow diseases.

I don't have a platelet problem just decreased reds and whites.

I am totally confused because Birgitta responded that it is common among people with haematology problems and also, if you Google it, it seems to be a common haematology symptom.

So why would my doctor not know about it? He is a very experienced and educated doctor.

I sympathise with anyone who suffers from this, it's horrible.
