Hi All,

Can anyone tell me if they have problems with water making them itch. If I get it on my hands they itch, showers are like torture. Even in my ears itch. It use to be just for a few minutes but now can last up to an hour. Creams dont help much if at all.  Any ideas out there?  Is it fibro or ???

Oh I forgot to say I have had many of the firbo symptoms for years. Last Dr told me anyone who even thinks they have fribro has mental problems.. His nurse just stood there with her mouth open as she and I had just been talking about it before he came in and she has it. Needless to say I cant talk to him about it. ( wish he could life in my body for one day) I was just wondering is any of you had this water thing going.

I used to get itchy feet while showering and did a little research on it (this was pre fibro) from what I read its your bodys reaction from going from cold temperatures to hot temperatures (water) I got over the problem by opening the vent in my bathroom to allow my skin to warm up a little before jumping in the shower and I try not to keep the water temp too hot.
