Itching, anyone?

I have had, off and on, this terrible itching! It's back, and it's driving me up the wall! It's nothing dermatological and topical treatments don't do a thing. My Fibro dr says she's never seen any patients with this symptom before. Anyone else have this?

Yes, my lord it is wretched! In particular I get the itch on my hand and I just can't scratch that itch, as you know. I have to tell myself to stop scratching but it's too hard not to. I have a friend with fibro and she has the same thing. In fact I was complaining about " this stupid itch that won't go away " and then she told me what it was and that it happens to her too. I have read about it since in a book on fibro.
