You may want to check out the Cutaneous Lymphoma Foundation website that will give you lots of information about your disease. They have an online support group and patients will share their experiences with itching. www.clfoundation.org

i would try benadryl it works the best for Itching Good luck i wish you the best. Your Dr could probably prescribe you atarax its a little stronger then benadryl.

Ask your GP or your pharmacist, there might be something off the shelf.
