Thank you for all your kind responses. So after 2 days on prednisone and hydroxyzine, the itch is lessening. Herb's oncologist thinks this is a side effect of the Keytruda treatments for cancer that Herb started monthly this year. So now we gave to decide whether to discontinue the treatments or face more of this side effect.
