I also have this itching in my legs

My legs swell a little bit and some times a lot. I itch so bad I want to scream. I can stand in a hot shower sometimes and it stops. I go outside and use the cold water from the hose and sometimes it stops. When this doesn't work I walk around trying not to go crazy. I take a tranquilizer and wait for it to work. Sometimes this helps. JC

This is kind of a new

problem for me I don't

remember having itching

this bad before, it's

been going on for about

3 or 4 weeks now. Maybe

my back has taken a turn

for the worse yet again

and this is my new

symptym.

A couple of times I

have taken benadryl

before I go to bed and

that seems o help alot

even for the next day.

But you can't take it

every day. Most of the

time I just try to move

into a new position and

that helps a little.

My feet, legs and hands

have been swelling some

for years now, maybe

with minor itching. But

this I can't take, you

feel like sceaming

running away,and you

can't do that.

I am making an apt.

with my doc Monday,

maybe they can set me up

for a new CT scan to see

how much worse it's

gotton. It may be time

for perscription meds

long term as much as I

have be avoiding this I

new some day it would be

necessary.

I'll let you all know

how it goes. Marci
