    Thanks girls. She is on the high dose prednisone for a kidney rejection. She has had a very bad rejection and is on huge doses of anti-rejection drugs. Up until a fortnight ago it looked like she was heading back to dialysis. Its a long term thing (although not on this dose) I just wish there was something more I can do. I know she is using bio-oil which I told her I thought it wouldn't help the itch and dryness and is also using the Dermaveen. She is my age so its just horrid (and I think I have problems sometimes). I can't believe her kidney specialists dont have any advise except put up with it.

    Oh gosh, how horrible for her. Um, can she try bathing in olive oil, or something similar? I'm sure that won't fix her problem, but anything that might help, right? I hope somebody has a suggestion that can really help her.......
