cholestasis....???

im 35w4d with twins, yesterday at my ultrasound the lady noticed i was super itchy and that i kept scratching. She told me more than likely i have "Cholestasis" with could cause dr to deliver babies early. so i did blood test to confirm or rule it out, the results with be back next week. anyone have this? or have had it before? dod u have to be induced early or  emergency c-section?

I don't know much about it other than it makes your soles of feet and palms of hands itch, and I do believe that it can be harmful to baby in the last few weeks so I think it usually results in induction, but don't take my word for it
