I have this issue often. I know if I scratch, it will wake me up and take longer to sleep because of my body movement. If I don't scratch, my mind only focuses on the itch. Sometimes I'll wait 5 minutes for the scratch to go away and then I just cave and start scratching any minor itch I have on my body. Has anyone just not moved and let the itch subside or does everyone scratch?
That's amazing to hear. What are the meds called?
This one is Gabapentin, although I've heard there are others available too. Definitely worth talking to your doctor about, they might send you to a specialist. That's who figured out what would help me.
