hi Nancy and all, this caught my attention :)....I have lichen planus/schlerosis and I have read many times that the amalgam in our tooth fillings can be the cause of this....the mercury that is. I have had this itchy stuff for almost 10 years and have seen all sorts of dr.'s and now am seeing a naturopathic dr as I am going crazy with this crap. it affects the mucosa membranes if you know what *that* means....yes...not fun. have you had any good luck since the removal of mercury? tell me more...I have many fillings.
