.I have it too, just on my lower legs and arms - Dr says that is a problem related to being Diabetic. Not given me anything for it though. I'll just have to itch forever.
Does anyone else suffer from itching skin? Is it typical in diabetes sufferers? I was diagnosed a few months ago with T2, and am trying to manage by diet and exercise alone. However, in the last month or so I have suffered with terrible itching to the area just above both ankles, both forearms, behind the knees and lower stomach. It's not there all the time - usually in the morning but sometimes in the evening as well. It drives me crazy, so, just before I book in to the doctors yet again, I thought I would ask you good folks. Thank you. :roll:

Doubtful you will get a reply from the OP as she posted this thread nearly seven years ago,What else!!! And I thought it was my new jumper! But couldn’t explain the itchy ankles! Now I know diagnosed before Christmas no meds yet trying to self manage. Finding it very hard to make the right decisions it’s mind boggling. Sorry just getting to me.
