I have this symptom with my MS and it's maddening! Nothing helps. I usually notice it more at night and it's usually on my back.....but I've had it on my arms, legs, neck, etc.

I've taken Benadryl but it usually just makes me sleepy and I can fall asleep easier.
I have this symptom as well. I thought it was my eczema at first. I have tried everything and nothing worked. I too would take benadryl just so I could try to sleep it off. Thankfully I haven't had the itching for a while now.
