Good morning!

I'm itchy. I've been itchy for a few days, now. It's bearable during the day but it's harder to deal with at night. I'm itchy on the soles of my feet, the palms of my hand, my armpits, my sides, my ankles, and some less mentionable areas. There's no outward sign: no redness or inflammation or anything. I'm just itchy.

This happened once before, in November of a couple years ago. It got worse and worse and then it went away. It lasted about a week, that time. I started taking benadryl at night every night, and I don't know if it made me less itchy or just knocked me out, but it did help. Maybe I'll take some tonight.

Anyway, now that I've googled this, I realize that I clearly have MS. This is why you should never, ever google your symptoms. You'll end up with a degenerative neurological disease.

hey, when I google my symptoms, I'm always having a STROKE or ANGINA. Or Fibromyalgia. EVERYTHING is a symptom of Fibromyalgia.

Also: it's probably the weather changing - I don' t know a single person whose body isn't going completely bananas in some way with this weather.

I have a pal who always has Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.

The weather is a good conjecture -- the last time this happened it was during a radical change in climate as well.
