Can anyone help with a symptom that Cardiac specialists do not seem to recognise as being part of my husband's chronic heart failure. He has been experiencing severe and incessant itching over most of his body - he is in absolute toment and scratching both day and night. Has anyone else experienced this? got any ideas as to what's causing it?
