Vest causing itching

I get it, but not on a regular basis. When I do its usually my boob area. I have never noticed or really paid attention if something I eat/drink makes me more sensitive or not.....

It is quite annoying & makes you want to skip the whole thing. During those times I have adjusted the settings to make me more comfortable.

I figure a treatment with different settings is better then no treatment at all.

I hope you figure something out.....

I used to get it all the time and I tried to ignore it and when that didn't work, I tried many things to try to help make it not itch so much. I tried extra layers of clothing, benadryl about 30 mins before, and even putting calamine lotion on before doing the vest. Absolutely nothing helped and my docs didn't believe me so when I went into the hospital one time, I used the vest in front of the RT and he saw what it did to me and told me to take it off. Not only did it make me itch, I got a huge rash from it too that lasted a while. After that, I never used it again and used other things for my CPT.

What helps with my itchies is wearing a 100% cotton tshirt under the vest. Sounds weird, but it may be worth a shot for Jesse too.
