Is anyone else bothered by occasional patches of skin that itch--and the more you scratch the worse it gets--as in red rashes, swelling--etc. It travels around even in the scalp--on the arms, legs just anywhere. I've used Benedryl, and recently am trying CBD drops of oil--just because I have it in hand. There's no apparent new food or medicine that causes it. It's aggravating--anyone have any relief ideas? Thx! Sandy ( Wyaatch)

Yes I get this every 2-3 days. I take anti histamine.
Thx --did anyone try to diagnose why the itching? How long can anti-histamine be taken? I just read that about 70% of people with RA have the leaky gut syndrome--so am suspecting gut issues of some kind--
Rheumatology said it was an allergy because if it was related to a drug then it would be there all the time, not coming and going. My feeling is that it is related to a drug because the issue started around the same time. I take 2 or 3 tablets of antihistamine a week and it has not been discussed how long I should be able to do this.
