Question:
Has anyone had your hands and feet itch constantly so bad that it wakes you up?

About 2 weeks ago my hands, fingers and feet started itching so bad that when I finally fall asleep it wakes me up. It's not non-stop, but pretty close. I was wondering if it could be the B-12 nose spray? Anyone else have this?    — Regina J. (posted on July 6, 2001)

You know, I did go thru a short period of time when the palms of my hands itched endlessly, but that did not last long and I did not associate it with anything else I was doing, so basically, I have no idea what caused it and what made it go away! Sorry, it sounds maddening!

Hi! I had that happen to me the year I broke my legs. Every night I itched and itched until morning....hehehe Found out I was allergic to the medication I was taking (codiene). If you are taking something for pain...etc, ask your physician about side its effects.

This happened to me 2years ago. I went to my PCP and he prescibed Zyrtec. That has pretty much taken care of the itching.

I have had this itching for about 2 years and it only happens at night. The itch is so bad that I feel as though I am going to faint. I have no idea why this happens and I don't even know what type of doctor to see. The allergy Dr. has no idea what is going on. Any words of wisdon?????

Do you have sleep apnea or have you ever been. I used to have a lot of trouble with itchy feet and hands, but now that I am on a CPAP for my apnea I don't get the itchiness as often.
