Hi, I think you could be inundated with replies, so many here understand where you're coming from! Its not easy to explain the itching can drive you insane, especially when its stopping the all important nights sleep. I find it does pass, sometimes I wake tired, only I don't remember scratching 'til I look at my arms etc. Hope you get a better night tonight. Tulip xx

Hi Guppy, understand exactly what you mean about not being alone. It is good to read about and talk to others who understand whay you are going through. I had the mad itching before and my doctor gave me tablets which stopped it, i'm sorry i cant remember the name of it. I think most of us have questioned our own sanity at some point, not only are we driven mad with new and weird symptoms, but also wonder what the hell is happening to us. Luckily this site brings light relief snd sanity at times. Welcome,

Shazzzy

Hi Guppy44

I am so sorry to read that you are struggling in this way, and I genuinely hope that you can find some resolution and relief to these issues. I think that all of us, at times, question who and what we are? We question our state of mind and ask, why me?

So please remember that you are not alone, we are merely a click away!

All my hopes and dreams for you

Absolutely. Much sympathy. It's horrid when you're itching like that - or worse, can't bear to be touched.

Some of us are loopy on here - but not necessarily because of the fibro.

Hi your not going mad , but I think that was proberly my first statement on the lupus site I definitely told the rhummie I was going mad , this site has been my life line , I do not know anyone personally with this condition ,so for the last 3 years I have been in total denile as to what was wrong with me I have mctd as well as fibro ,you find many coping mechanisms here but the two I find helps me the most are communication and laughter ,

I start my day usually with foggies pic ,and gins morning chat ,then take the rest as it comes ,yes you will info on here but you also get unconditional friendship ,keep your chin up ,and sleep as well as you can. X
