Hi,
I have had a condition for 3 weeks of having itchy scalp, face, an arm, a leg, a hip. I will be at work or at home, in the car, doesn't matter where, and I will feel a sudden burst of itchiness. I recently took in a cat I am fostering but the cat has been confirmed by a vet to NOT have any fleas or mites. Also she is not scratching. I looked in ALL the Sarno books as well as all my other TMS authors' books (I own them all) and I do not see anything on skin itching except for hives and allergies. I do not have itching/watery eyes or nose. No symptoms that feel like traditional allergies. I did try a Claritin to see if it would help but it did not. Can anyone help me on this? I'm open to it being TMS, as well as any other ideas.
Thanks. Mary |

| Mary, I've had the itching you describe for as long as I can remember, since childhood really, with it increasing in various areas as I grew older. I consider it to definitely be TMS. How do I deal with it? I give my itchies a dry skin going over with a firm-ish natural bristle brush first thing in the morning and when going to bed at night. If I can manage to ignore the 'wild impulse' itches that come at inappropriate times, they just disappear - but that takes quite some willpower!! My newest itch is my eyes, now and then my ear canals, with the palms of my hands coming and going.......and on and on, all to dist ract and protect me from the pesky emotions. |
