I have recently been diagnosed as have a nickel allergy which (this time)presents as a welt-like rash on my legs and turso, extremely dry skin, hugely itchy and it appears to last 10 - 14 days - dr recommends treating it with RX skin creams - I'm still processing the whole thing but would like to hear from others who have this allergy and how best to live with it - it this point I can't even figure our how/where I get it -
