Had anyone been diagnosed with ICP?

Question

I’ve been horribly itchy for a week. I have my anatomy scan tomorrow and follow up with doctor and my anxiety is through the roof thinking I’ll be diagnosed with this. Im sure doctor will order blood work to confirm but I’m only 18&4 weeks. Any words of encouragement are appreciated

Answer

I got diagnosed at 15 weeks after I had been intensely itching for a week. I'm 19 weeks today. I've been put on meds for it that I take 3x a day, and the itching has stopped. Thank God, because it was SO miserable. I have my anatomy scan and follow up appt this week so we will go over what to expect in more depth then. So far it seems to be under control, but I'm sure I will just have to have my blood taken more often to check liver bile and more than likely I'll have to be induced around 37 weeks. But I'll know more on Thursday!

Answer

I had it with my 2nd. Got diagnosed at 35 weeks and then they set up an induction date at 37w+4 (I went into labor the day before) the itching was horrible. It felt like bugs crawling all over me. They gave me some medicine and made me do blood work every few days to make sure my levels weren’t getting higher
