I have had LC for almost 18 months. The itchy rash all over is TERRIBLE. I have tried many things but I have found that ICE helps the itching. Easier to do last summer when it was HOT but now that it is cold Hard to do.It has something to do with sharing the same pathways. Now this is gonna sound strange but it HELPS. A banana peel rubbed over the itchy rashy area. It has some kind of enzyme that helps. I have some other things to try and will let you know if they work. Have had the itchy rash since last April 2023 and unable to get in with a derm. Local derms dont take my insurance (Medicare) and the one that I can get into that takes my insurance I have been trying to get into since last May and now as so much time has passed I am too sick to drive to Seattle.

I'm also on Medicare and I had my own doctor write an 'URGENT REFERRAL' to a local dermatologist that accepts Medicare patients. That was the ONLY way they'd see me sooner than 3-4 months.
'URGENT REFERRAL' -- it's what you have to get.
