the reason for the docs is because of your government and what they have done to these doctors. they are all on a schedule, so many minutes for each patient, like herding cattle. I am really fortunate and grateful for my doctors all associated with Duke Hospital. I have one in Raleigh and I also go to the big one in Durham, thats where Kennedy went for his brain cancer. That place is awesome. My rehuma doc is young, and she knows all about my scleroderma. Thank God because not too many did when we were trying to find out what the heck it was. If I still lived in Mass, I would be going to the doctors in Boston. They also have a scleroderma section there. I have been very lucky. Good luck to you and I hope you find a great doctor. xx

Totally agree. When I was growing up as a child in CT in the 60's, doctors were easy to find. I think that overall now a day, the medical field has become depressed.

Then you need to demand it. no ifs ands or butts. final answer. its your body, you make the decisions. if they don't listen then find a doctor who will. They shouldn't be refusing you with your problem. Doesn't make sense xx

Northerngram,

I used to take Atarax 25mg. also. It was wonderful. That's exactly what I asked for today.....and was not listened too.

That's an unusual reaction Hyroxyzine hydrochloride (Atarax) in an old fashioned anti-histamine that causes drowsiness and reduction in anxiety as well as reducing itching.

I use it 25mg last thing at night as it helps with itching one can use upto 3x 25mg per day but I get too drowsy. Might be worth trying it again with good company to help if you go "loopy" If you drink alcohol with it you get even more drows ac both are CNS depressants.
