i would like to thank you for the advice, what i had was undiagnosed, but did not turn out to be shingles (which was relieving) but a few days after the itch did move to the end points of my body but has ended. once again thank you.

I would go to the doctor (now) and question him about SHINGLES.  This is a tough thing to treat, and is (I have heard) very painful.  Make sure this is not what you have, and get the right treatment either way.  Blessings - Blu
