Itching ........!!

I have Lupus SLE and i suffer with itching and it really only used to affect my arms and sometimes my legs. I have to wash with Aqueous Cream, then I apply Balneum Cream as a moisturiser then I have to apply Betnovate Cream which is a steroid cream, and i also rely on Antihistamines.

But this week my itching seems to have upped a notch, and its starting to be everywhere and anywhere and nothing seems to be helping. I came across in Tesco a new Magicool which is for itchy skin and its supposed to take the itch nerves away, but that's not helping either. Normally with my routine it kept it to a minimum but now it just seems to be starting to get out of control.

Does anyone else suffer with this itching and if so what do you do when you are in an itch attack please ?
