[QUOTE="MilkMan, post: 208725, member: 42652"] Been awhile but wanted to offer an update. The itching actually got worse (to the point that it started feeling like little ant bites, even causing me to twitch at times) and always intensified at night. My endo sent me to a neurologist who did some blood work and determined that I was both iron and B-12 deficient. Iron levels were particularly bad (ferritin 7 ng/ml). The itching/twitching was likely the way my body manifested Restless Legs Syndrome, as pramipexole and gabapentin knocked it mostly out. I've got an IV iron infusion in my future, although there is some concern that it will raise my hematocrit levels too high (I'm at 48-49), so we'll see what my endo recommends. [/QUOTE]
