Bonnie--Mine didn't itch either--at first! Just looked like bug bites then eventually I got more of them in the same area of my neck and then some very itchy single ones on my chest, abdomen, arms, legs. After about a week I was intensely itchy. Doctor prescribed a "strong" cortisone creme which didn't seem to do a thing. I reqested something more and got 52 prednisone pills. After one dose the itch is manageable! Very hot showers work best!!
