    Terrible itchy skin
    I have been itching terribly for about a month now. I live in Florida and the weather has changed from super hot to chilly at times. My skin does get dry but I moisturize. The first few weeks there was ano bumps or redness just itchy. Now I have been getting hive like bumps and it gets heated and blotchy after I scratch. Now and then I get red umps but not all the to e. I itch all day and mostly at night and has been keeping me awake. I've looked up all sorts of things and sometimes it looks like eczema and others not so much. Some people say maybe scabies?. I don't know how I could have got them, I'm single and haven't been with anyone in 7 years. I don't think it's that although I have maybe two of the symptoms but yet are other symptoms of other stuff as well. UGH! I'm going crazy and can't get into see my dr till the 7th of December! Please help! Any ideas on what to use try? I've switched body washes to aveeno and free and clear laundry soap. Stopped using fab softener. I don't know what else to try? Thanks for any advice you can give.
