I'm itchy everywhere. Does anyone itch all over from stress?

I've been bipolar for 10 years.  In the beginning, before I was diagnosed, I had hives from stress but haven't had that problem since.  I'm under a bunch of stress now, recooperating from surgery, waiting to heal for another surgery, and getting a new boss.  Have any of you got the itchys everywhere from stress?  I'm using Gold Bond creme for it, but I'm still scratching everywhere.  I have not changed soaps or laundry detergents.

Serafena, I started Lamictal a couple of weeks ago and one of the side effects is a rash, from what I understand.  I don't have a rash though, just terrible itching on my arms and legs.  Do you think that it could be a drug reaction and maybe I should call my doctor's office?

Thanks Serafena. I've been telling myself that I'm just stressed, but was afraid it might be a drug allergy, too. I'll call my doc tomorrow. I've gone 2 weeks like this and it's getting worse.
