Anyone have dermatitis herpetiformis?

I have an outbreak right now and it is itching like crazy.  I have anti-itch cream on it, but it is not helping at all.  Do you have any suggestions to calm it until it heals?

    I have it. Do you take Dapsone? Maybe try Sarna lotion.

    I don't take any meds since I'm TTC.  This is the first flare up I've had since last summer.  It is much better today, but still really itchy in spots.

    Weird thing but my outbreaks were amazingly few and far between both pregnancies. i had horribly bad belly rashes around 34wk and sarna was the only thing that worked. it is like a body lotion. I got it at Target.
