Not only does my body crave salt to a concerning level, anything sweet tasting makes me feel naseous the moment I try to swallow it. So guess what, now I have even more things to put on my list of alarming things to tell a doctor about. Right along itchy skin, throat pains, and frequent muscle cramps!Aug 17, 2021

The salt thing reminds me of “salt wasting.” Basically, some people’s bodies can’t keep salt in the body ling enough for it to be taken in. Some folks with it crave the salt that their bodies need.
It comes with a bunch of other issues though & none of which are those other things you listed.
I hope that whatever’s causing those things for you can be figured out & properly treated!

You should definitely speak to a doctor sooner rather than later as they should be able to run some tests.
But have you tried drinking anything with electrolytes? You might have an imbalance somewhere and that's what the cravings are about. I'm not sure about the itchy skin or throat pains, but muscle cramps can be due to bad sodium/electrolyte levels.
