The worst was if you moved the shirt rubbed on the skin just and little then sends you down this spiral of itching, heart palpitations and sweating all over again. Thinking about it even 6 years later makes me go crazy.
Dude I feel you. It was bad when I had it. I thought I was allergic to something in the candle shop we went to on our honeymoon. It wound up being the beginning of hells itch. Hot shower, salve.... nothing works.
It went away after 16hours I was hopped up on Benadryl and Kona Beer to stop it.
I told someone at work about it a few years later and their professor did a whole lecture on it. Its rare but does happen. Unless you have had it, you have no idea how much it sucks.
