Itching comes by way of eczema for me. I use Aveeno baby wash, Dove nutrium body wash together. I also apply Cerave' Body Cream after showering. I take Clarinex, Singulair, and Allegra every day. I take Clarinex in Am, Allegra int he evening and singulair at night. I also get allergy injections every month. I did figure out what was setting most of it off for me by eliminating all citrus, tomato and any peppers from my diet. It made a huge difference. I do not eat any Stevia, nurtrasweet, or splenda. I can handle cane sugar, corn syrup and xylitol. good luck on figuring out what is making you so itchy if it is solvable. I know that the nerves cause some of it. Please rub gently and do not scratch..it makes it worse.

Oh my I thought it was just me, I have sensitivite skin. But since fibro my I have been itching much more. I had tries tons of different thing and finally I had found a regime that works.

Head and shoulders dry scalp shampoo and conditioner. Applying coconut oil after shower. Dove sensitivite skin body wash. Okay sensitive skin face wash. Olay sensitive skin/SPF 15 lotion for face ( also helps with clearing unwanted skin blemishes /spots. Vaseline lotion(yellow bottle). It took me years to come up with this.

Find a herbalist and this ointment has helped more than lotions

Do either of you take a pain medication? That can cause itching. Also, thyroid problems can cause extreme itching. I forget if it means too much or too little hormone. Hope this helps a bit. Have a good night.
