I went through terrible itching non shingles related and it took prednisone both times to break the cycle of itching. Nothing else worked. You sound exactly like I did, same thing. I was told it was nerve related and for where it was located, they said it was due to my neck. I had 4 level cervical fusion in 2002 so who knows. good luck!
