I have no problem with my eyes or mouth, but I am glad you gave the name of the rinse in case I need it. My skin is getting much better now. I hope I don’t get any more blisters
I am now experiencing blisters that itch and burn when the break.
They are mostly on my arms but have also shown up on my , face, chest, and upper thighs. It has been 3 years since I was diagnosed with Bullous Pemphigoid.
There was a time last summer when I wasn't having any symptoms.
But this year is different. I went to urgent care at one point because I couldn't get in to see a dermatologist until July 28th. They prescribed clobetasol and doxycycline. They want me to take the doxycycline for 3 months and use the clobetasol for 4 weeks.
Iam into 1 month and nothing has changed.
I am at my wits end. My partner has cancer so I try to put things into prospective but it's not easy. I hope you are doing better.
At this moment I still have the red blotches, but I don’t put the creams on them because they don’t itch, and the rash is gone, but my skin is pink. I guess you have been on prednisone before the Doxycycline? I am on the Doxycycline, too, and get a shot every other week. I hope your inflammatory skin will go away quickly.

My doctor told me that I would never be able to get off doxycycline or another drug like it.
My friend had this, the dermatologist put her on steroids for a long time. It finally went away. She was on them for months.
