Yes, the itching drives me crazy. It feels like little needle pricks with intense itching. I sleep with a bottle of cortisone lotion by my bed because the itching wakes me up. It's the only thing that stops it.

Yes I have the same problem with the itching at night. I have vto cut my nails very short if not I wake up with scratches. It is very annoying. All the things I use for personal hygiene are for sensitive skin and even though that I still have skin issues.

My arms and legs itch like crazy. It used to be just my legs. I do notice that my hair tends to fall out in pieces. But when I take a shower and wash my hair, there's a lot of hair in the drain. More than it used to be.

Sorry it’s been a bad year. My hair is not falling out in clumps but I also have fine
Thin hair between the rashes on my face and if I had bald spots, I don’t know how I could deal with this. I can’t even deal with it now it’s been seven months since I’ve been diagnosed, but six years with all the side effects. I have flareups on my face at least once a week.
