I'm on IVIg. It does more for my rash than my muscles. I thought that's why it was used. IVIg seems like a pretty big step to take for a dry skin patch though.

You can always try coconut oil. There are several of us on the board who swear by it. Might not want to put clothes on over it right away or you'll end up with a grease stain. I've also found I LOVE Gold Bond's Ultimate lotion. They have a Shea Butter and an Aloe. I prefer Shea Butter.

Keep in mind that for some, the rash often preceeds muscle involvement. That's been the case for me so my doc takes the skin issues seriously.
