Just a long-shot but could I ask your age (approx) ?
It's just that since the menopause I have had a consistently itchy back with nothing visible. I have put it down to 'formication' (please note spelling!!) which is the sensation of ants crawling over/under the skin.
I discovered this is a known sensation after menopause with no real explanation. It has got a bit better so I hope it will disappear completely one day!.
Hope yours goes, it's irritating...pardon the pun!

Thanks all for your replies.
Bessie boo - Land of leather sette which I have had for 3 years (hubby did clean it last week though!)
Yoga sun - I will be 41 next month, and I did wonder if it may be pre menopausal.
I saw my GP this afternoon - and she thinks it is just 'one of those things'. Advised piriton and E45 cream. So I guess I shall be scratchy for a bit longer.
