Members widely confirmed experiencing itching and rashes across various parts of their bodies, with many noting that these symptoms occur primarily at night, during sweating episodes, or when overheated. Several members shared strategies including using cortizone cream preventatively before sweating, avoiding trigger foods, and being mindful of medication side effects like those from Cymbalta. A recurring theme was the frustration of unpredictable flare-ups and the intense discomfort of itching that feels unbearable, yet the reassurance that others in the community experience the same symptoms and believe they are connected to fibromyalgia.

I itch a lot but all over and mostly at night, but no rash. I do believe it is related to fibro.

Yes, itching. It was WAY worse when I was on Cymbalta. It was one of the side effects that I couldn't stand and had to go off of that drug.
