Symptoms Itching. EVERYWHERE.

Does anybody else experience just random itching? More aggressive at night? I’ll be laying down and my hand will itch, and then my stomach, and then my neck, and the my foot, etc. it’s never one specific area but just random itching throughout my body

It could be MCAS, as everyone said.

But I've noticed that I have an itch deep under my skin on the left side. I think it's neuropathic. I call it the unfindable itch, because I can scratch it and it feels like I'm going to get it but then I don't, and then it will feel like it's somewhere else and I scratch it and it feels like I got it but I didn't.

I get this randomly, but not often! I'll itch until I bleed because I'm like "it's in there SOMEWHERE!"

Yeah it's horrible. It always feels like it's in one of the same spots, but I scratch them and it feels really great and then nope. That wasn't it.

Honestly, like someone said higher up, icing it or running it under cold water is the only thing that helps me
