I too have episode where I itch and cannot stand it. I didn’t know what caused it but I do know. I was born with a primary auto immune disease called cvid and was diagnosed 4 years ago. I too had quit itching for a long time but it came back. I started treatment for years ago and still itch some sometimes but not as bad.

I dont get a rash, usually, but I do get a lot of very itchy "spots". They itch sometime so badly that it drives me nuts!

I've had RA for over 20 years, the only time I ever had a rash was when I had shingles.

Is it related to the medication you take for RA? I had rashes for the three years of Humira. Finally off of it, rashes stopped

i get these hives that come and go. no apparent reason. or, my entire body will just. . . itch. as in, i will even wake up in the middle of the night, scratching. not even hydrocortisone has helped. the drs seem convinced i'm eating something i'm allergic to, but every time i'm tested, nothing comes up. FRUSTRATION.
