Can anyone help me with the itching. It is coming as my liver is failing and it is atrocious. I can not sleep at night, wake up clawing myself.
Some relief with Benadryl, Lidocaine/Prilocaine 2.5/2.5 or 4% Lidocaine, Lotions, but nothing lasts, even after cool showers.

I'm not on any chemo's anymore, probably bringing in Hospice soon, but really need some help with this. I swear, after two battles with this disgusting disease
this is one of the worse symptom's to tolerate.

Any suggestions will be tried!!

Thank you so much, Di
