> > > I just came off of Lamictal about 4 or 5 days ago because I was developing a mild case of SJS. I'm currently going through withdrawal. Things are starting to improve BUT I'm still breaking out into very small rashes that you can barely see BUT THEY ARE DRIVING ME ABSOLUTELY CRAZY WITH THE ITCHINESS!!!! What can I do to relieve this itch before I rip all my skin off. I've already got some of them bleeding.
