Why Am I Having Severe And Painful Itching In Hands And Feet?

Pre-op bloodwork showed I have a low AG Ratio of .7. Post-hysterectomy (LSH, kept ovaries) I am having severe and painful itching mostly in my hands and feet but really all over. My kidney, liver, thyroid are all normal. I'm told it could be estrogen but I kept my ovaries.

HI.

This looks to be due to an allergic reaction to may be one of the medicines or so.
You need an antihistamine and other medicines as per Doctor's advise.
If still in doubt better to take another ( second ) opinion of another Doctor or a Dermatologist.
