https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Update-on-skin-condition-thread-with-57Babe-LaterGator-and/m-p/38342#M17318 <P>I went to the dermatologist today for my i t c h ing, burning skin. I was told it's eczema - caused by the very cold long winter and brought on also by stress. Mine is not visible - Dr. said it only "comes out" if you scratch and I do not scratch - just usually rub with lotion or something.</P> <P>She said most women will get it where I have it - arms and legs and/or back.</P> <P>She gave me three meds - one is an extremely expensive cream - Vanos. It would have cost me $89 with my health ins. prescription card. However, the prescription comes on a card with a ph. no. where you can call and "register" your name and activate the card. (google Vanos Cream for more info) That will get you the medicine for $20! It sells for $700-$1,000 per tube!! OMG!!! So please, if you go to a dermatologist you will get this card. I don't think a regular Dr. will have it.</P> <P>She also gave me a Hylatopic - a foam to apply to skin. And, if I start to i t c h at night and cannot sleep she gave me Atarax - she said to only take that at night as it will make me very sleepy!!</P> <P>So, for those i t c h y friends of mine - ask your Dr. about Vanos, Hylatopic and Atarax. I hope this info is helpful.<IMG src="https://community.qvc.com/DesktopModules/ExactTarget/Controls/TextEditor/jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/001_smile.gif" alt="Smile" /></P> Wed, 09 Mar 2011 21:13:43 GMT Snuggle-Bunny 2011-03-09T21:13:43Z https://community.qvc.com/t5/Community-Chat/Update-on-skin-condition-thread-with-57Babe-LaterGator-and/m-p/38342#M17318 <P>I went to the dermatologist today for my i t c h ing, burning skin.
