This is happening to me as well. Got the booster the 23rd. Noticed my scalp itching first on 1/3. Ok so there’s a bunch of us and not a lot of answers. Is there a specialist who can help us? I’m miserable and from the sound of it, we may be stuck in this situation for a while. I need to know when this itching will go away. Will it get worse? It seems to be the same. Not better. Not worse. Always worse at night. Will it ever end?

Good evening @staceyfred, welcome to Connect. I would like to be helpful about your itching. I have been dealing with "the itch" for quite a while. I don't quite know where to start or if I have enough information from you.

You indicate that your scalp itching began on 1/3/2022. Is that right? Are you relating the onset to the booster you had on 12/23/2021? Is that the correct date? My dermatologist has been working on "the itch" for a couple of years. She gave me Fluocinonide.....and a protocol for using it to keep the scalp itch under control. It works.

Where else on your body do you have the "itch"? Have you had tape testing or any other kind of process to determine the cause? Regardless, I have finally found a solution that works for me. Once again, my dermatologist has introduced me to a new product called Dermeleve......a non-steroid ointment that you simply rub on the itching area. It is available online at dermeleve.com. If you enter "dermeleve" in the Search block at the top of this page...it will take you to my introduction of this product. It takes effect within minutes and lasts about six hours. Literally, it has saved me from insanity.

I know too well how much you would like to be free of the "itch". And no....it doesn't have to get worse.

Are you doing a lot of scratching in your sleep?

May you be free of suffering and the causes of suffering.
