I'm glad you've found something that helps the itching. Just be alert to any changes in how you feel since diphenhydramine can sometimes cause people issues for people (especially in withdrawal) such as activation or insomnia.
Have you tried limiting high-histamine foods to see if that makes a difference as well?
Keep us posted on how you're doing!
