My experience with Small Fiber Neuropathy
Neuropathy | Last Active: May 24, 2022 | Replies (85)Comment receiving replies
I have a condition called brachiordial pruritus which is a condition that comes and goes and causing terrible itching on my arms. I don’t know if you are familiar with it, but the only thing that helps it is using ice packs. In fact, that is one of the ways they diagnosis it. Prescription creams don’t help at all. Many nights I go to sleep and lean on ice packs. I wanted to recommend you try ice, if you haven’t. It’s the only thing that has brought me relief.

Yea, I use to think I had pruritis too. I think that term is used when noone wants to go through the hassle of getting people the correct test to get a diagnosis. My small fiber neuropathy is also releived through cold and many times that doesn't work. They told me I had pruritis for about 13 years until finally my neurologist sent me to get the right test. I used lotions of many types and many different allergy pills that dont work. Some creams give me relief but thats ify. I would suggest that you go to a neurologist and have your large and small fiber nerves tested before excepting you have pruritis.
