Does anyone have an idea?

I have been having the most severe itching in my lower legs, it is the kind of itch that you can not ignore. There is no rash, I do have some edema but had the itching long before. Sometimes I'll go months before the next batch of itching. Heat, nor ice help, lotions, over the counter itching creams do nothing. I have a doctor appointment later this month but the itching is driving me crazy now. Any Ideas out there Thanks

    First off, sorry if this offends you, but if you happen to be on any illegal drugs, get off them. That's being serious, not trying to be funny.

    Other than that, try not to scratch it for it could make the problem worse, and just hang in there until your appointment so you can see whats up.

    Good Luck and I hope it all works out!! =)

    I am having the same itching now, and I use Benadryl to stop the itch.

    You can use the pills or the spray kind. It works.

    you can try to take a bath. Wash it really good but don't scrub it! That will just irratate it even more! After you clean it really good. Dry it off...after you dry it off put some malox in it. No joke like that stuff for heart burn and acid reflux. But just the orignal kind! It will work!

    Just a thought.
