Hi all,I'm 27, female and was diagnosed with CALR ET 3 years ago. I've been having Pegasys interferon for 2 years. I've always had a tendency for dry skin... not particularly bad... and all my life this has been managed with moisterisers. Over the last year I've noticed a deterioration in my skin in general but most annoyingly my scalp! I have never been someone who has dandruff until now, but my scalp seems persistently dry, mostly along my hair line. Nothing else (nothing!) in my lifestyle has changed, absolutely nothing, except starting Pegasys and I'm wondering if it's this as I know it can cause dry skin!
Has anyone else experienced this too?? Does anyone have any tips?! I've tried tweaking my hair-washing routine, my washing products, and leaving plenty of time to see if these changes make a difference but nothing works and my scalp is still dry. The rest of my skin isn't as problemstic as I just used richer moisturisers, but I can't seem to improve my scalp. Any suggestions?! Thank you!
