In fact Lew sometimes (kindly, of course) gets after me for scratching my itches, telling me it's all in my head and that I need to just ignore it-- the whole mind over matter thing. And when I say I'm itchy, I mean-- I could always scratch something on my body that itches-- pretty much at any given time. So...I went to my DO today-- just a routine visit, my once a month check up for my hormones, etc-- and as he was doing his checks, he said I was low on Calcium. As he is asking me questions, he asks if I am itchy. I thought about it, and almost said no, because it is just me and I have come to embrace my itchy-ness-- but then I thought a bit longer and realized that yes, I am itchy. He said it is because of the calcium deficiency and that after I start on this specific calcium supplement and another thing, it should go away. So, in a few weeks-- Lew should be happy that I am not keeping him awake at night with my scratching.
