My cousin has Non-Hodgskin's
My cousin has Non-Hodgskin's T-Cell Lymphoma Mycosis FUngoides. What skin care treatment is available to reduce and decrease the itching and provide moisture?
I have lived with CTCL for
I have lived with CTCL for over six years. I had it 3 years before I was diagnosed. They always say indolent...but it is not always that easy! Mine became agressive and spread to my lymph nodes. it took several different treatments to get it under control including chemo but still it never goes away and mine is coming back fast after a only 4 weeks off chemo for scheduled testing! The only way to stop the itching for me was that my doctor prescribed CYMBALTA(1 time a day) and Neurontin(3 times a day)for my pain!! This disease can be serious. Cancer Websites need to be updated. it is hard to tell Mycosis from Sezary...most doctors familiar with it call it CTCL now. Get a good doctor/oncologist from a NCI designated hospital! that specializes in Lymphoma/CTCL!! wish you well.
ps. recommend you get Eucerin original lotion for moisture...Vaseline is messy but may have to be used in rough areas until the doctor can control it and it is no longer spreading. Remember everybody is different with this disease but these recommendations will work with most.
