I write this for my wife who in addition to the BRP she has also lost most of her sight.
According to her she is in constant itch and pain, 24 hours a day. Nothing has really helped, the CAPSACIN HP and the Enbrel relieve it somewhat. but that is it. Since she has lost most of her vision she has to rely on other senses. Some medications that had been recommended over the years dulled her senses and made her feel like in a fog. Been to 4 different Dermatologists, an Allergist, a Neurologist, Acupuncturist, whats left. Years ago I heard about a study that was going on in Eujope, Maybe Denmark not sure. I contacted the Dr but since she was so far away she did not want to comment on anything. I understood.

Well I don't live far from Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston which is to me the best hospital around and I'm seriously wondering if I should see a neurologist out there because I know it's the nerves being pressed by the deteriorating discs however the itches now spreading beyond my shoulders and my neck but the scalp is itchy my my whole back is itchy I do have bad arthritis in my back so maybe those discs are pressing on all kinds of nerves I'm itchy all the time at night and somewhat during the day the Atarax helps a little I take it mostly at night to help calm it down I'm just worried how bad is it going to get I know they can replace discs if they're really bad they can put cadaver discs in or whatever I really don't want surgery on my discs
