Members connected over unexplained itching with no visible rash or dry skin, sharing that medication side effects were a common suspected cause, with several naming their seizure medications as a likely trigger. Many community members suggested practical steps like checking www.drugs.com for medication side effects, staying well hydrated, using gentle lotions like Gold Bond or Aveeno, and consulting a pharmacist who may know more about medication reactions. A recurring theme was frustration with doctors dismissing concerns, with strong encouragement to switch providers, request medical records, and keep advocating for proper care.

I go through similar a situation, mine is due to dry skin though. I put on lotion to help the irritation. Sorry you're dealing with such and hope you'll find out why to help not going through that any longer.

Earlier today both of my arms were so itchy that I had to put anti-itch lotion on. I was very frustrated because I wanted to sleep already. It took awhile for the lotion to work, but it was better than nothing. I’m just trying my best to think positive. Let’s all be strong together!
