Members overwhelmingly connected over experiencing intense itching, particularly in their hands, feet, scalp, and wrists, with many finding relief in knowing they aren't alone or imagining these symptoms. Several members shared practical strategies that have helped, including using Cortizone 10 cream, switching to gentler dish soaps, taking Benfotiamine supplements for nerve-related itching, using daily antihistamines like Reactin, and exploring hormone replacement therapy when menopause is a factor. A recurring theme was the validation of having symptoms acknowledged as real rather than dismissed as being 'all in your head,' with many describing the itching as linked to fibromyalgia-related neuropathy and occurring without any visible rash.
