My body started itching and had a bad stomach pain, then diagnosed with gastritis. Is gastritis and itching on my body connected?

Hi adelle 1105
Itching over the body can be linked with liver problems. Visit your doctor and tell him/her of your itching symptom...

unfortunately my results weren't great!
GASTRITIS, barretts and todays results ulcerative colitis.
there is most definately a connection with the flare up of gastritis and itching mainly at night.
ive found low dose valium helps ease the agitation.

tiredness, headaches, general feeling of unwell, bloating,stomach pain, wind, bleeding, itching,fever, rapid heart beat,heartburn, trouble swallowing certain foods, mind foginess, depression, trouble sleeping......

Hi Tracy,
I too get an itchy back, it is bad at night before I go to bed and when I'm in the shower strangely enough.
I have had bad gut problems for years and have to follow a very restrictive diet and in my thinking it has to be related to this.
Interesting to see that others have the same problems. I too get the what look like insect bite marks, mainly on my legs from time to time too.

Wait this is interesting lol. I haven't gone to gastro yet, but I've been having Gastritis type symptoms, and I've also been having generalized itching.
It is mostly on my neck and arms but can be anywhere rlly. I just start feeling itchy in a spot and I scratch and then it becomes red and sometimes even little hives appear. It's not my detergent or anything, I don't know what it's coming from. I thought maybe it was a stress itch bc I also have anxiety.
