Hello Fred 64 no so I will ask my oncologist on Tuesday if I can double it    Karen xx

Hi Karen,

Welcome to the group.

I've been having the same problem with the itchy skin. Some days are worse than others and once it starts, usually in the evening, it drives me nuts too. I've been taking antihistamine for the past week and trying to keep my skin hydrated with Hydromol ointment as it's so dry. It has helped a bit,

I've drawn blood spots on the skin from scratching so much. I try my best not to scratch it but do it without realising sometimes.

I hope you find something that calms it down for you.
