I'm going for Phototherapy next week for my pruritus/nemular dermatitis.

I have had very limiited success with the creams and products such as Zyrtec. I'll start with 3 times a week and gradually decrease as I progress and then just go in for follow up. Sounds pretty easy. He says most all of his patients respond to this therapy.

I am a big mess skinwise. I also have post-herpetic neuralgia which is painful/itchy too but my pain management doc is setting me up for Qtensa which involves a thin wire inserted between my vertebrae and needs to be done outpatient.

My life revolves around all this stuff. Just hope I'll have better luck going forward...

2. they'd better, but my skin doc says if this doesn't work he has another theray so I'm hopeful.

He's a brilliant doctor so I'm grateful for thatk. Plus, he's a helluva nice guy.
