I have had itching for at least 10 years now, mainly my legs and middle of my back. I was told to try voltaren cream. It kind of worked but since then I have discovered and been using CeraVe itch relief cream (red and white jar not the lotion) it seems to help me pretty well. As for your Mom’s other symptoms I can only pray that she finds the cause and some relief. I also tried gabapentin and took myself off it after a week because I didn’t like the way it made me feel it might have something to do with her other symptoms

I had an itch on my back that was horrible = it almost hurt rather than just itched - my doctor told me to get Capsaicin BUT not to put in on right out of the tube - it is so powerful that it almost makes the itch worse = he told me to mix it with a heavy cream and then smear it on - that did help
I also am prone to itches on my arms or legs late at night - my go to are ice cubes - i put them in a washcloth and rub them on the itch for minutes and I guess they quell the nerves that are causing the itch - it does work for me but not on an itch as severe as the one on my back.
