STUPID RAIN/SNOW! I am going mad with crazy skin, so nauseated from it I don't know what to do, and the HAIR on my HEAD is stabbing me! And I've been tearing clothes off and trying other clothes and it's just awful today and I'm whining like my cat does when I drag his fat furry ass to the vet! GAAAHHAHHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Where's the smiley for GAAHAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH?

Oh my, if I could just take this hair off my head and don't forget about the foot. I would like to take it off also.

Ushie have you try benadryl? I have an RX for mind, could you call your dr and he/she order something without you making an office visit? Hope you had a better day.

The itching sometimes is ridiculous! I know we talked about this before, but I know what you mean, Ushie...sometimes I just want to dig my skin off. Feel like taking a wire brush and scratching with it. I agree, try a benedryl...that usually seems to help. Hope you are doing better!! HUGS

Hi, 12-hour day, kept me running! The craz sking seems to be oversensitivation (is that a word?) I showered and rubbed a King of Skin bar over me, and that helped. Going to try baking soda/argan oil bath tonight...thank you! (Van you imagine a convention of us, clawing at our skins, moaning in pain, dragging hot water bottles everywhere? OTOH, I bet the meds would have us hopping!)
