Well, no I actually ❤️ & look forward to it every waking moment, NADA! I am so beyond extremely SICK 'n TIRED of this horrible disease w/the unbelievable and unbearable intense itching, burning, stinging, pain, sores, crust, scarring, several bald spots, and scabs that never heal! C'mon FDA chop, chop!!! Sorry a lot of sarcasm there as it has made me want to be sent to the Funny Farm!!😱

I never thought about the thin skin Burt, but I do have sensitive skin. I found out there are a lot of underlying conditions like asthma psoriasis etc. I explore the resources here and that's what I found out plus a lot more. Hope this helps.

I'm tired all the time. Tried CPAP. Still tired. I'm not young so mebbe that's the cause, but I think you're on to sumthin.
Here's a odd idea I have about PN: apparently PNers have a thin outer layer of skin. The epidermis. I was premature, so I got to thinkin': "preemies" are known not to have completely developed lungs. Possibly. What if it goes with totally developed outer skin? Would that be a factor in our endless itching? I scratch my head thinkin' about it.
