Hi Everyone,
Haven't been on here in ages and really missed it.
Well its 5 months since my surgery. Can hardly believe it! All has gone well and finally over the last few weeks I am starting to have more energy. Basically don't need to have a nap every day.
I have started physio and go for my second appt this week.
Anyways, my question to you lovely people is my back is sooooooo itchy. Not the scar but the skin around it. I went to the GP and was told I had eczema (not sure on spelling). They gave me a steriod cream which helped to calm it down as it was really angry. It is loads better but its still itchy. I know it gets itchy because it is healing and the skin is dry etc etc. I have tried oils,lotions and potions
Did anyone have this problemo?? What did they do and when did it go away??
Also the itchiness went round to areas all over my body. Do you think that was all the drugs coming out of my system??
God, sorry this thread is making me itchy now.
Can't wait to have some advice.
Miranda
