I get a lot of itching. You can be dehydrated or having allergies. Go to a doctor as soon as you can. Of course, illegal drug use of crystal meth and others can do this, too.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
If you are a lady and in the menopausal age, then this is a common symptom. Hormone replacement therapy often helps. It is also seen in people who are very anxious and stressed out. Take up yoga, deep breathing exercise, walking and remain strong. Music and aerobics are also good stress busters. Drink plenty of fluids and water (not caffeine), eat fresh fruits and vegetables and keep yourself busy throughout the day.
Very dry skin and disorders of thyroid gland all can precipitate a crawling sensation.
The other possibility is Morgellons disease often mimics scabies. The disease is  believed to be caused by weak immune systems in people that have contracted the tick-borne Lyme Disease at some point in their life. It can also be a fungal infection like Tinea corporis. Hope this helps. Please let me know if there is any thing else and do keep me posted. Take care!
