[QUOTE="KennyA, post: 2679408, member: 517579"] hi TOnline and welcome. I had something similar - repeated itching, "skin rash" infections, anywhere there was sweat I itched. I was showering all the time, just to get some relief, but it would reappear overnight. This started (along with a fair number of other nasty symptoms) when my BG was low to mid-40s. This cleared when I reduced my BG. It went almost instantly (I mean within a couple of weeks), and hasn't returned in over four years. My conclusion is (based only on my own observations) that my sweat had a higher amount of glucose in it than it should have, and this supply of food was good news for my resident skin bacteria. More bacteria, more acidic bacterial waste, massive skin irritation. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
