Your symptoms were so well stated. You will never know how reassuring it is to know that others are experiencing these conditions. At the time of the initial “itch” I developed a very light brown area about the size of my hand (upper left shoulder blade). So interesting that we have had some of the same conditions, including the smell of metal.

Finally I visited an immediate care.
The “itch pain” was so uncomfortable, weeks later went to the NWMH ER immediate care in Chicago at 8:00am on a Sunday.
The ER DR. checked me for shingles which had negative
results. I understand her visual observations and TRYING to understand what it could be for her patient. Her photographs of my itch area did not capture the brownish spot. 🙁 only the small scratch marks.

Thank God, for my neurologist and my prescriptions.
Will this itch continue and be a permanent condition?
Truly, at this time, I do not think there is an answer.

Strength and prayers.

I have been using Taurine (Now brand) 2/day between meals and Boron 3 mg (any brand) 2/day between Taurine and meals for pain, and it works. Taurine is an essential Amino acid that supports neurological functioning. Boron, essential for strong bones andI readt stos pain. It hrlps with my joint pain and neuropathy. Both are ntural body chemicals and, therefor, relatively nonintrusive. Perhaps worth a try. I have alo read that itchiness canbe associated with liver disease. Have you had a genral blood test that would include lver function? Wishes for your recovery and return to enjoying life.
