Hello Everyone. My Name is Darlene and I was diagnosed with MS in October 2022 after partial loss of vision and pain in right eye. I have multiple symptoms which are mentioned on this site. I have been experiencing a crawling/itching sensation, which gets worse as the day progressed. Extremely bad at night. I have tried taking Benadryl, it doesn’t work on crawling/itching sensation, it does make me fall asleep. Has anyone had this issue? If so, how can I get relief? Please let me know. Thank you so much.
Cold is the thing that has worked best for me with infuriating MS itches that aren’t proper itches at all, just the effect of nerve misfires. A cold shower before bed isn’t always a terribly appetising prospect, but if you can’t run the affected part under a cold tap (and hurrah if you can) it might be worth a try.
