I have in the last few weeks started to itch all over my body....face is oily patches in the t zone, rest dry....arms, legs, back, vaginal area etc all dry scaly but not hives or red breakouts. I lost a friend to similiar issues about 18 months ago and he had developed cancer. I have had a pre-dispostion for cancer (external dysplasia twice VIN1 & 2) , benigned lumps in my breast, and endmetriosis. The itching can be most any/all times, but primarily at night the worst. I ve changed fabric softeners, detergents, body wash, shampoos etc. It s beginning to be very intolerable...keeps me from resting/sleeping. There are some scaly patches that were checked two years ago by a local derm Dr. She said nothing to worry about, but the get very itchy, if I scratch they will flake or peel layers off...some normal skin color others darker.
