I have had NO RELIEF AT ALL FROM DUPIXENT!!! I've been on it since August of last year and mine is getting worse not better. I hope it truly helps you!

I thought Dupixent helped with the itching but then it got worse. The dermatologist said it wasn’t working and to just stop the dupixent. I was afraid because they said it can get worse after you stop dupixent. It has been 3 weeks since I stopped it and I am so much better. I have truly learned that this is a good day/bad day disease. You find a medication or a product that helps and for a day or two you have this belief and hope, that you’ve got it this time, then the next day you are ready to amputate. I have dozens of products and medications, but for now I will use ice when it itches and keep my hands off it until I get a new plan. A good thing is after stopping the Dupixent my eyes stopped itching and burning and my vision improved, also I felt like I had a tight cap on my head, like pressure. That is gone. I thought it was PN but for me it was the Dupixent. I did feel for a while that Dupixent helped, not sure if it did, or if that was just what I wanted to see.
