I've been dealing with this itching all over my body for about 4 weeks now, ever since I had surgery to remove a nail from my femur. They used total anesthesia. It's so frustrating, especially at nightit keeps me from sleeping. I'm not sure if this itching is normal after surgery. And now, I've started experiencing some shortness of breath.
