I understand, I have an appointment on the 2and of August with my dermatologist. This rash itches so bad. Thanks to each of you for the insight and help.
There is Methotrexate, Benlysta IV infusion or SubQ injection, Imuran, CellCept and as a very last resort sometimes they will use Cytoxan.
The less you can get away with the better it is. Hope you find this useful, but make sure you judge risk vs. benefit with your doctor before starting.
I know that some people are on an immunosuppressant (methotrexate, injections) talk to your provider and ask him if he thinks it will help
