        Hey Laurie,

        Wish I could help you on this one but I too actually found this site by looking up itching of the skin as it may pertain to Melanoma.  I am a Melanoma survivor X 3 and am personally afraid to ask my Oncologist about this itchy part of my skin without rash but that has, about 1 to 2 inches away, a lump of some kind.  I don't want to think, with every little issue, oh no, Melanoma again but when you've been cut up as much as I have and had gone through all the treatments, tests, etc and found this sucker is a sneaky one, I never know when or how it's going to pop up its ugly head and I want to be ready, be proactive. 

        So, if anyone does have any info on this, please let me know or well, let US know!

        Enjoy life my friends!  You never know when the day you experience may be your last!  MAKE 'EM COUNT!
