Hey guys thanks for all your responses...

As far as the lotion goes, I haven't gotten any last night but I think Im going to have to get it and try. My skin is horrible.. holes everywhere and scars from previous holes. It's not attractive and I get yelled at by my fiance when I do it... it is just torturous when it gets started.

It starts like a little electric shock so I scratch it and then it goes haywire itching constantly. I have mentioned this to my neuro but at the times I mentioned it there were far worse things going on with me. The neuro just kinda brushed the "itching" off at that point and time. You know I have an appt coming up in Oct which is a follow up from when I was in the hospital.. I think I might keep that appt and ask my neuro for something to help.

Thank you all for your suggestions! They are greatly appreciated!! Any others will be too!!!
