Please, please quickly go see any rheumatologist, the itchiness is a symptom, treat the underlying reasons first, before it spreads to internal organs.

The one at Tawakkal Hospital is good. The doc may suggest a round of treatment with some fairly strong intravenous drugs to "knock down" the over-active immune system.

Thanks for the advice. Now been using shampoo for sensitive scalp and also soap for sensitive skin. All products are organic now. Costs are not little and we are not wealthy but for my mum health i don't mind fork out all my saving.
Thanks for the asvice. Actually my mum been having skin allergic for almost 5-6 years now. All this years we been seeing Dr.Chow skin specialist at pudu. He mention that my mum was having eczema and been treated her like other eczema patients but we didn't see any progress until some of our family friend suggested us to see skin specialist at HKL where they will run tons of test to diagnose you. So yr ago we went to HKL and that's only we know that my mum been diagnose with SLE Lupus. Been a yrs now seeing HKL but no good progress too. The medicine are the same every time we return for appointment.

So other family friends was suggested for a Rheumatologist. It's expensive but i have prepare for this. My mum health are more important than anything else in this world. I just wan to see my mum smile again that's all.

My mum use this shower gel for bath which she claim can ease her itch for temporary:-



While shampoo my mum just use baby shampoo as per advice by doctor:-



As for lotion my mum use glove in a bottle which was good:-



Mind if i'm asking are you having lupus as well?

You can get it at any pharmacy like guardian or watsons. Just use it once in a day when u you bath and leave it like 1-2 minutes before you raise with water. Are your lupus rashes itchy as well? Are you seeing rheumatologist now as well?

@uglyduckling422 the drug is cyclophosphamide (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclophosphamide)

Unfortunately SLE is is not easily diagnosed and most non-rheumatologists ascribe the symptoms to eczema, dengue, a lot of other stuff. There's a DNA test they can do to determine for sure if it's SLE or not.

You can just drop in and see the doc, and ask for the DNA/Anti-DNA test for SLE - they will draw some blood and you will get the results in a few days. Don't delay.

uglyducking422, mind to tell me which rheumatologists doctor you are referring at sunway and also UM?

Thanks! i will run a quick search on that!

Thanks alot. She been eating very healthy recently but rashes still itchy like hell made her so frustrated. Is Dr. Chow good and friendly? Many doctor that i meet are not the friendly type. Because to be able to help my mum i tends to ask doctor question to make myself understand this lupus and to help my mum whatever i can.

@uglyduckling, is this the UM doctor that you are seeing now? Is he good? Dr. Sargunan Sockalingam

Thanks! I will google about the doc later. Have you heard of Dr. Benjamin Cheah Tien Eang? Which happen to be in UM and currently he was the President of the Malaysian SLE Association. Just 1 more question @uglyduckling, if I want to bring my mum to see Dr. Sargunan, do we need to take referral letter from the outpatient dept of UM & then insist on seeing Dr. Sargunan? Is it the correct procedure?


Thanks sah! I will find more detail on the mentioned doctor!
