How Can Severe Itching And Pain In The Legs Be Treated?
I have been having trouble sleeping because of severe itching on my shins and sharp shooting nerve pain running down my legs. It has actually been waking me up it hurts to bad. I started taking Fluoxetine a few months ago and was wondering if that might have any bearing on this?
