Since Goofy is not awake yet and Can Do Man - well, he's on drugs I guess the responsibility falls to me.  In posts this morning you wrote "I just quite wearing pants and wore my Utilikilts for 2 weeks solid.  Good air flow and you can get in and apply moisture all over..."  Now I understand why you've been solid for two weeks.

I felt like I had the worst case of ribarash ever, it took two weeks to get thru the process of making the rash go away.  Now I must moisturize morning/night daily, the rash keeps trying to flair up AGAIN. Is it common for people to get the rash more than once? Or am I taking things to the extreme as usual?

What a beautiful day, warm, sun is out, great day to wear my Utilikilt, at least that helps keep the rash at bay. Good air flow and you can get in and apply moisture all over you legs.  

Have a great weekend everyone, shot 13 tonight, next week I see the doctor to find out my blood testing results at the 12 week mark.

The rash is a CONSTANT thing - if you don't continually moiisturize it will come back for sure.  Just make sure you do. Later in tx it got better for me but I STILL moisturize now...something I've never done before.

also make sure you are using a really good lotion for the ribarash like Medicated Gold Bond which binds to your skin and lasts longer than most of the others. It iwll help

Hey FL -- you need to go to the utilikilt web sight and look at all the manly men.  Frankly I wish all men would wear them -- they are ultra cool.

Kilted -- I checked out the Utilikilt websight when you first posted about it -- They were supposed to have a booth at the Celt Festival here in March but were no-shows.  I was going to buy them for my grown sons...... not sure if they have the guts to wear them, tho.   Also -- found out you can't use a utilikilt for scottish games -- has to be a traditional kilt -- trying to get my 26 yo son into that.  Think it would be fun
