Purrs, please

Could you please purr that my skin calms down soon? I am off to take an

UGH, that sounds miserable! I get these bouts of extreme itchiness in
specific places (on my forearms, backs of my hands, and my feet), not
sure what causes it, but I find that pretty miserable. I can't even
imagine what it must be like to have your whole body involved.

Is there a systemic medication you could take for this? If it's dryness
that's causing it, could you install a humidifier in your bedroom or
elsewhere in your house?

Anti-itching purrs on the way!

Actually, when my skin is feeling good, I've been known to use this stuff:

It smells absolutely unreal.

Purrs that the oatmeal eases the itching.

I hope you get to feeling better soon!! Does antihistamine help? That
is the only thing that helps when I get itchy.

Try zyrtec. You can get it over the counter now.

I was a horribly allergic child to many things so I am there with you,
Theresa. I know that itching. I grew out of most of it. Not all.
Lots of purrs and big hugs for your skin to behave
