I just woke up. I think the aspirin and benadryl wore off. Because it was a burning itch in my shoulder and neck that woke me up. (shoulder feels lighter this morning, like some of the numbness let up, so that may be one good thing)

I'm still really itchy. Now that I'm awake it's starting up again really bad...and my skin is sore where I scratched it before I feel asleep this morning.

I dont know which is worse, pain from spasticity or itching. At least baclofen and valium seem to help the spasticity. I'm still not sure the aspirin or benadryl help much. (I'd have tried neurontin if the neurontin didnt make my feet swell up like big balloons everytime I take one. I'd rather itch)

Yes Yes i know what your talking about. I have it on my shoulders from my cervical spine pinching a nerve. drives me crazy. I have been given nothing for this. I have peripheral neurpathy and this is part of it.
