RLS or neuropathy: Hard to tell from your decription if this is a neuropathy or restless legs syndrome as it only occurs at night. Clarify with you pcp and have them check for diabetes (neuropathy) and iron levels (rls). Both serious but very treatable conditions.

My hands and feet are always pale and cold. My feet get very itchy when i start walking and it gets very uncomfortable sometimes even my legs get itchy . Is there away that I could stop this or treat it?
I have been having extremely itchy skin. Starts on hands and feet. Sometimes on the rest of my body. There are no marks to show any signs of rash. That is until I claw myself to death. Wondered if it may be a sign of diabetes. Never had this before. Lotion does not help. I have not changed any kind of soap or shampoo or detergent. I can take a Benadryl and it will stop. Itching?
