    What else!!! And I thought it was my new jumper! But couldn’t explain the itchy ankles! Now I know diagnosed before Christmas no meds yet trying to self manage. Finding it very hard to make the right decisions it’s mind boggling. Sorry just getting to me.

    You may be better starting your own thread. You would get more replies.
