Since 3 June and that severe reaction to whatever the hec it was, I’ve had sunburnt-feeling, burning, hurting legs, with the added bonus of intense, almost vomit-inducing itchiness. My arms were a lesser level. 3 days ago the burning stopped, but the draw to itch, albeit once a day, did not. And then there’s tonight. Nothing… My left ankle and leg is still a bit swollen compared to my right. And there’s still the remainder of a rash. But the redness has died down and… Even when I took my jeans off – absolutely no itching sensation! I didn’t even have to rush to get pjs on to protect myself from wanting to scratch! My feet played up last night, but that was an eczema-feel… So I whacked on the Dermovate. But, for my legs – all I’ve used since it happened is Bath E45 in cool baths, and various emollients. Now it’s like something has physically left me – thank f**k for that! I’m so calm I’m excited! Aaahhhh!

Hi there I have been following your blog , and just wondered if you had considered the possibility that the dermavate could be your problem ? My skin looks very like yours a lot of the time , but I now know it steroid induced and will be stopping all steroids in September . She knows out Itsan if you have not already , best wishes Juli X
Hi. No, I know it is not steroid induced. This last thing was an allergic reaction, but usually my skin is manageable and I don’t always use steroid… Good luck when September comes, we always have to try everything….
