PUPPS it is

I've been super itchy for about a week and after I saw the rash started popping up in different places decided to go to the dermatologist....and yup its puppsChat Icon

Basically not much I can do, dr didn't want to give me any scripts. He said it will go away after I give birth but I am only 21 weeks!! That's a long time to go being sooooo itchy.

Anyone have good home remedies? What worked the best for u? I've read about aloe and some special soap.

Talk to another dr! I got a prescription from my dr for PUPPS. I got a HUGE container of a cream. If you are interested in it, you are more than welcome to it. Good luck, it's no fun!

YES!!!!!!!!

My SIL had it 2x, both times she used grandpas PINE TAR soap from GNC. Within a few days it was tolerableb and almost gone!!! She swore by it!! It can smell like a campfire but sooooo worth it not to it like that!! She also used cortisone creme if it was really bad,

The soap is all natural and really worked, I read about from some many people on the computer!!!

Good luck

I developed PUPPS after delivery, which is rare. It was awful! I tried pine tar soap, Sarna lotion, cortisone OTC, Zyrtec, Benadryl and finally was given RX steroids and cream because nothing worked for me. I was able to use the RX meds because I was not bfing. But as I said, my case was postpartum so not sure if that made it worse. I really hope that you find some relief because I know how maddening it gets. Good luck!
