I was wondering what cause the insane itching associated with NHL.I had it the first time round and the itching went away after a couple of chemotherapies. My Doctor put me on prednisone 80 mgs sliding scale and clobetasol propionate ointment. Its the worst part of this illness Dr Dezube. I'm sorry to hear about the itching. It can certainly drive you crazy.
Cancer releases irritants that lead to the itching.
