Hi all,
I was diagnosed with Polycythemia Vera around a year ago. The treatment is thankfully going very well, and my blood readings are in a good place. But the main physical symptom I have is skin itching, which I know is common with this cancer type. Prior to diagnosis it was the classic post hot bath or shower. But now it happens daily, and with no specific triggers. I know it sounds like a small symptom in the grand scheme of things, but is pretty extreme.
I was wondering if anyone has some tips to deal with it? I am using standard antihistamine, but it doesn't seem to help.
Many thanks for any helpful tips.
