Itch: Not due to fibromyalgia. More than likely it is irritative due to sweat buildup.

Likely not fibro: As you know fibromyalgia is characterized by a constant dull ache, typically arising from muscles, occuring on both sides of the body, both above and below the waist. Pressure on tender points (see diagram) also characterize condition. Sleep is frequently disrupted by pain, and fatigue,  anxiety,  depression headaches abd irritable bowel syndrome may co-occur. If complaint persists see your doctor.
