Itchy scalp

Some time ago I read on HU about a man who had an itchy scalp brought on by medication. I now am troubled by the same problem and wonder if the original sufferer can advise me or someone else have an explanation and possible remedy. I have osteoporosis , glaucoma , lymphodemia asthma with appropriate medication for all of them. Help would be appreciated. I am 85.

I demanded to see a Dermatology Consultant. He put me on Synergel, and this cleared up condition. But you must see a good Consultant; we are very bad with dealing with skin conditions in UK.
