I suffered from severe itching arms, also anyplace on my body that had elastic(bra, elastic in panties). I was about your age. Those areas developed large welts(hives). I too scratched until I caused bleeding. Another symptom was, I craved peanut butter. Read in the VITAMIN BIBLE that I lacked the B vitamins. Finally got relief by taking stress vitamins-1 in am, 1 in pm. In about 5 days I would get relief. Now in my late 60's I have no problem.
