As someone who suffers with nerve damage to my spine with OA and OP I feel your itch. Here’s some info to help you understand. Also, I’ve read and heard that shingles can cause this without a rash. Have you had a shingles vaccine? I know you said you’ve had this for 28 years.

@jenatsky hi there,
Thanks for the response and the information. I guess it sounds like me! It’s something in that realm anyway. I have no signs of damage to my skin or any rashes or anything. The cold weather certainly makes it worse! I’m struggling right now.
As for shingles? I had that as a child/teenager. I remember that but nothing I’m aware of since. My itch came on when I crashed back in 1998…..diagnosed with M.E. It came on then but I have no idea what caused the itching!
