Insanely itchy!

Hi All

Not sure it’s a coincidence or stress of going back to work but I’ve developed an insane itch on the right side of my torso, it’s really inflammed from my intermittent bouts of scratching when I can’t bear it any longer! My bottom lip seems to be dry (and craving a drink is the only way I can explain it).

I’m taking antihistamine and applying hydrocortisone cream but it’s only helped slightly!

I’ve been titrating up on Levo from 50 to 62.5 to 75 now 100.

Any thoughts / ideas much appreciated.

Random suggestion—but it’s not shingles is it?
