It is awful especially when it flares up. The itchiness disrupts my sleep and makes me cranky.
How is the cream application going? It must be challenging. I'm not sure how you do it. An applicator? Those tools I find difficult to use and messy. Do you have other options besides cream?
The ointment I use is external only. It's a potent steroid that seems to have thinned out my skin making it vulnerable to cracking. I am hoping the coconut oil, which I am going to purchase from the grocery store will help that.

I cannot figure out what I am allergic to. I've tried different things to rid myself of this and nothing is working. Thinking about this is frustrating and triggering my medical trauma. Why can't it just be an easy fix, where I don't have to keep seeing doctors? I hate seeing doctors because I fear they will say I am crazy, or basically that my mental health issues are manifesting themselves on my body. I absolutely fear that.
