@newzbug, @johnbishop Thanks for your return with new information for members and I see John Bishop has sent you off on the hunt for more. One thing I did notice that both of you deal with itching. Mine started about the same time I began tapering off an anti-depressant. Itchy finger joins. (My friend said it was a fly of some kind of an early MN mosquito. No way.)

Sometimes it is on the bones of my neck...around my ears, the back of my knee and all around the ankles. The worst part is down my shins which I tend to scratch in the middle of the night. I did talk to my doctor about neuropathic itching and she prescribed Triamcinolone Acetonide Cream. I am guessing it is a steroid. It does work on the big blotches on my shins if I remember to put it on them.

Be safe and protected today. Chris

I think some of the itchy spots elsewhere for me are due to a skin condition I inherited from my dad. Seborrheic Keratosis. I have these bumps over most of my back (flesh toned and raised) that get really itchy. She prescribed some steroid cream for periodic use to help with the itching and froze off some of the worse ones. I use a back scratcher cuz they drive me crazy....My husband won['t scratch my back cuz he's afraid he'll hurt me. Enough talking about that, makes me itchy just thinking about it.
