I Am Having Very Painful Skin Flare Ups Which Look Like Eczema As Well As My Nodules. Does Anyone Else Have Experience Of This Please?
A MyPrurigoTeam Member asked a question 💭

Would Any Support Team Members Be Willing To Email The FDA?
A MyPrurigoTeam Member asked a question 💭

I have exhausted all avenues to find out when the FDA is going to approve the new drug Nemolizumab to the thousands of us suffering from this horrific disease as I have been dealing w/this on my scalp for 15 years.
