Default dyesthetic itching

I dont really know where to begin other than I'm just at a loss right now. I started having an electrical shock feeling and uncontrolled itching in my left shoulder and down my inner arm about 2 years ago. Went to the neurologist ,had an MRI and he found 2 cavernous angiomas on my spine that he wants to" watch". He also said that these were not causing my symptoms that he did not know what was causing the symptoms but he did offer to give me some meds for the symptoms. Well I dont want meds I want to know what is causing the symptoms.Its time to go back for my annual MRI and I dont want to see him. I want to see somebody that is interested enough to try to find out what is going on. I still have the burning,itching and feeling like I have a sunburn on my shoulder constantly. I can stand it but it is annoying. Seems that it is worse at night and the more I scratch the worse it gets. I read that dyesthetic itching especially from the cervical dermatomes can be a symptom of MS. So why cant he do more testing other than just telling me that he just doesnt know whats going on? Frustrated
