@Hey
Yes, I get them. When it happens it drives me crazy. I feel like bugs are all over me but there are none. It is actually a type of pain to feel like bugs are crawling over me. I learned that during a questionnaire I had filled out at my pain doctor's appointment. In the summer is when it is the worse. Keeping cooler seems to help me. They have mats that you can place on the bed for either side to make the bed more warmer or cooler. They cost a lot. They used to be around $100 but with the way the prices have gone up they are probably a lot more now. Sleep number carries them. You do not have to have a sleep number bed to get one. It is definitely a symptom though. I hope this helps.

Yes! It's awful and I usually notice it at bedtime. I've tried benadryl and anti itch lotion and powders. Nothing works. I just have to wait for it to pass.
