@gailmarienewton I'm sorry you have been so badly burned. Yes, it will pass, the itching is annoying. Sometimes I just used a cold dampened washcloth on the area to stop the itching. Then would apply cream as needed. Aquaphor is a good product for healing. I think the anxiety is there for most as we have gone through the treatments and follow ups. As the treatments get further away you will feel less anxious but it takes a bit of time because it has encompassed so much of your life. Best to you as you now can begin healing and regaining time back in your life, and not working around so many appointments. I hope you can celebrate in some form after your last session, whether it's with a loved one, friend, or sitting outside with nature for a bit. Make sure you give yourself a pat on the back and a smile in the mirror because you deserve it!
