Fibro and itching skin

[Smudger119]

I suffer with fibromyalgia and wondered if anyone else experience’s all over itching that comes and goes and problems with balance

[Hidden]

Yes both, sometimes I want to itch my skin off. Balance like we drunk sometimes

Thank you for your reply. Yes my skin and balance has been really bad lately and wasn’t sure if it was linked

I have had fibromyalgia for 6 years and since I had my hair dyed 2 years ago my scalp won't stop itching, it's driving me mad. It also burns. My doctor has diagnosed neurological itch, but I feel it is most likely another symptom of fibromyalgia as I can't find anywhere that anyone has been diagnosed with this kind of non skin related itching from hair dye, so this is not a normal reaction. I have read that there is such a thing as fibro itch, the question is how do you stop it.

I itch every day, always on my back, and then at different times and days on my arms and stomach. I've stopped having my hair coloured, grown out the colour and had it chopped off....I shall just go grey gracefully

I also get itchy skin and it get painful too. It’s been diagnosed as Allodynia. It might not be the same as what you have but there’s sadly nothing we can do about it either. Sometimes a really cool shower helps me when it’s bad so maybe you could try that?
