It may be Wafarin but as I don't nor ever have taken Wafarin, that could not have been the cause for me. I have several autoimmune disease and get an itchy rash on my joints, especially knuckles and elbows and sometimes knees when I have an inflammation flare up and is usually a precursor to joints swelling.

Never heard of that one to be honest. I think a trip to doctor is in order there. I've been on warfarin for ten years or more and never heard of itching before.
