Try acupressure, it helped me stop being itchy. Also don't take long hot showers, no perfume soaps.
Has she tried going gluten free? It has helped reduce my syptoms.

I suffered for 8 years before getting a proper diagnosis. Eventually diagnosed with PLC. Initially the doctor put me on antibiotics and the UV light therapy. Antibiotics helped but I saw no improvement with the UV therapy so I stopped it. Currently the doctor prescribed Dovate 20mg in Epimax cream and Prednisone for inflammation. Cream mixture really minimizes the break outs and with the itch.
