    Itching all over

    Hi...Sorry to bother everyone, I haven't been here in some time, but I have an issue i need some help with. I've been itchy all over for the last 4 weeks. Legs, arms, back, chest, face, stomach...everywhere....it comes and goes and moves from place to place. It's mostly in my legs though. I'm really worried I have lymphoma, I don't have any noticeable enlarged nodes, but the right side of my chest is painful. I haven't had any night sweats either and don't appear to be losing weight, the itching also doesn't keep me awake at night. I was recently diagnosed with an ascending aortic aneurysm and had a ct scan done at the end of March. Apparently no nodes showed on the scan. My Dr did blood work which came back normal, however I was under the impression that lymphoma isnt usually found via blood tests. He has also requested allergy testing, but I have yet to hear about that. As I said I'm extremely concerned about lymphoma. I'm going back to my dr on Friday to discuss this more with him. I'm 62 but I know lymphoma isn't really an age related illness. Thx for any help you can give.

    Ok there has been no improvement. I知 seeing my dr again this morning. Needless to say I知 very scared and stressed about this. I値l request he do blood work again. I don稚 know if he値l request a scan to see if there is anything going on. I have visions of him telling me I need to go to the ER or urgent care to get checked there ASAP. Anyway. That痴 where I知 at now. Really struggling with this. Finding it hard to cope.
