NOT sure about that, but I did hear that that sensation in the legs is a symptom of that, and that in some cases, the skin crawling sensation can occur all over the body, not just the legs, and still be considered RLS. The only other thing I've seen it could be is Restless Leg Syndrome. Never the less, not a thing was found, searched mattress, box spring, walls near bed, everything. My mattress is brand new, the apartment I live in is also pretty close to brand new. I had read about the possibility of it being bed bugs (from reading sites like this online) so I tore my bedroom apart looking for signs of an infestation, and saw NOTHING. I have no lesions, sores, boils, wounds, or anything of the sort, and no fibers protruding from anything. Ruled out dry skin I've read about "Morgellons" (years ago, before it was a mainstream idea) and don't think that is what I have. I have not changed body soaps, shampoos, or laundry detergent types in quite a while (well before such symptoms) I do not have dry skin, or any type of rash. The sensation "goes away" once I touch the area (either itch it, brush at it as if there WAS a bug I am brushing off, slap it, or touch it in any way.) I've heard that various forms of dry skin, or minor allergic reactions to soaps could produce such a problem. The sensation occurs throughout my entire body, no area is exempt from this sensation, and it seems to be completely random, at times I'll feel it on my arm, then my face, then leg, then arm again, etc, no pattern. Occurs more at night, while laying down than any other time. No actual bites, rashes, bugs, sores, or anything of the nature is ever visible. The sensation is it feels like there are "invisible bugs" crawling on, and/or biting my skin. Symptoms are strange sensations on my skin. It's been going on longer, but less noticeable, now since I do not talk sleeping meds any more, it's all that I can notice. Nothing "brought it on" so to speak that I can tell of. Anyways, just started noticing these strange symptoms, within the past few weeks. I have no diseases, do not use drugs, but drink on occasion. I recently had a full physical and the results were that I am in above average health. I posted this info before, but it was a reply to someone else's similar post.
