Good afternoon family. I have multiple myeloma. What's with the itching. What can I use? Help, it's terrible 😢

You can also try Sarna Anti-Itch lotion.

My husband uses Aveeno unscented and applies lotion after showering. They also recommended not having the water so hot.

A discussion with your healthcare team would be helpful for identifying the cause of your side effects. Your oncology nurse and oncologist can offer a lot of ideas. Make a journal of symptoms before each visit to discuss with your healthcare team.
I use Benadryl to address itching skin.
