What Is The Cause Of Itchiness All Over The Body?

I currently have breast cancer and is awaiting surgery. I underwent chemo and suffered some liver damage and neuropathy. But for the past 3 or so days I've been incredibly itchy and have swelling in my feet,legs, arms and hands..my itching is almost everywhere like a prickling, crawling type. My itching is very apparent to both my nipple area..not sure what to do. My hand and feet, feels over stuffed and it hurts quite a bit.
