Random question to you all….I have ET, I’m on Pegasys and have been for a few years, I also take aspirin. This year I’ve been bitten a lot (I have always been a tasty meal for little bugs!) and whilst I try not to scratch the bites we all know that sometimes it’s not possible. I’ve found that my skin is quite fragile and a little scratch has caused a lot of damage to my skin. Has anyone else found this? Is it due to the meds or ET? Or is this unrelated and just a symptom of getting older (I’m only 40)?
I’ve now discovered citronella bracelets and they seem to be keeping the bugs at bay.
