With my treatment of Revlimid I had to start taking allergy medicine. I take Zyrtec every day and my itching is gone.

It sounds like allergies to me. Have you seen a Dermatologist?

I've had terrible itchy scalp lately. If anyone were to see me scratching, they would think I had head lice! I researched itchy scalp shampoo and the Head and Shoulders brand for the problem came out on top! So we'll see.

I had this really bad before I was diagnosed. My dermatologist said she had blood cancer patients complaining of a tender itchy scalp and skin. Anyway, Revlimid made it worse. Switching to Pomalyst helped. I use Tressema shampoo. I went through a bunch of different types of shampoo, until I found one that helped with the itching. I have to wash my scalp and hair every night. I use Evive conditioner for damage hair. Itching can be worse than pain if it isn't controlled. So let you doctor know if you are miserable. I use Dove soap bar for sensitive skin. I hope yours improves with treatment.
