Hey Breality,
The rash comes and goes For me and last few days has been awful.
See if your doctor will prescribe Tricinolone Acetonide.
Drink water till it tastes bad then drink Gatorade.
Lots of lotion. Benadryl.
Oatmeal treatment bath even tried apple cider vinegar once
Need to try that again tomorrow.
Warning: the more u scratch the faster it will spread.
Sorry u r hurting, I an on same tx at 10 weeks.
JoAnne

Breality, the advice about apple cider vinegar (two cups) in the bath, and tons of water, along with good moisturizing lotion, and even a hydrocortisone cream is real good advice. And don't forget you can use Benadryl for the itch, too. But I would ask the doctor about the specific vitamin product you are considering before you start taking it. There are many things that are contraindicated with this treatment. My doc told me to stop all that stuff during the Incivek stage. After that they let me start my vitamins and my chondroitin, but no iron supplements of any kind. Alan

Monitor your rash, some people get it early in treatment and it gets easier, some get later and it stays like mine. Notify your doctor if it gets really bad.
