And what's so strange about it is scratching doesn't alleviate the sensation!

Here's a good link about MS Itchiness: http://www.nationalmssociety.org/abo...ing/index.aspx

There are medications used to relieve the itchiness, as stated in the article, but I've chosen not to take them. I just put up with it and wait for it to pass. Seems like I'm just trading one set of symptoms for another set (from the meds ) so I just wait it out.

I hope you feel better soon. It's just a mish-mash of symptoms with MS. When one leaves another shows up to take it's place!
