Does PN Feel Differently Depending On The Stage That It's In?

Coeur D Alene, ID

Do the sores that are healing feel different from the raw sores and the itchy skin with no blemishes? Does any of it feel like a neuropathic, tingling itch? Bugs crawling on your skin, itch? Other?

Yes I always felt like I was infested with tiny crawling bugs. Scabies or maybe bed bugs in my house. Nope it's just the PN I have a high level of stress like all of us have some stress it's impossible to escape the stress. But I know stress makes me itch and break out. I asked my derm to do a parasite test. She did nothing was found. She said unfortunately it's PN. SOMETIMES I DONT BELIEVE I HAVE TO DEPRESSING SKIN DISORDER. I DONT THINK BIOPSIES LIE!
