I have had dry, scaly skin and small cracks in the skin on the inside corners of my eyes for years. I have also had intense feminine itching. My doctors treated me for varying things with no relief. Finally I learned to live with these conditions using a lot of lotion for my eyes and lanacaine for the other.

Recently I was researching vitamin deficiency symptoms for something else when I read that a riboflavin deficiency could cause fissures in the corners of the eye. So, I started taking a B vitamin supplement. Low and behold, not only did my eyes clear up but the itching went away! I am so excited. Finally I am comfortable again.

YAY!! Sounds good to me. Glad you are feeling better.


DAY

yea! I was taking B vitamins, and tons of lotions. Turns out I have Sjoghrens syndrome. I have taken the interventions, and woo hoo! it works.

that intense itch can make ya wanna scratch right through to the other side. orgasmic is a good way to describe how great it feels to dig. DONT DO IT! but it feels so good.

I posted about itching awhile ago. It's still there. I will ask my GYN when I see her Wednesday about vitamin B.

My itching is moving around. Unfortunately, it has stayed in my vaginal area, but I'm also having it in my armpits, on the back of my head, the back of my neck and between my shoulders, as well as my arms. It's driving me nuts. Gold Bond helps the best for me, although it stings when I first put it on.

There is no actual rash, but the areas do turn red. It is a prickling/itching sensation. I just want it to GO AWAY!!!!!!!

OMG OMG OMG

Me too!

My itch has stayed in the crotch area, and I find the hydrocort cream is helping, but now my armpits ITCH! I want to dig. I have looked before scratching, and there is no rash, but the skin is a darker shade than the other area, exactly where its itching. heat rash maybe? I asked the DH to look at the vaginal skin to see if its discolored, but he keeps taking advantage of the situation, and gets funny ideas. sheesh!

I find mine is where folds of skin are. its where the arm pit folds over, its where the leg of my panties rides, or the seam of my pants. I have been running round the house commando, and bare injun, but now I have the keep smacking the husband off of me.

I see the MD this Thursday, I plan on asking some questions. Most of the time I just say "yeah, yeah, thank you...and go" but I have some things to discuss this time.
