Intensely Itchy Skin

I had my J-pouch take down in 1991.  Everything has been mostly fine since.  About 5 years ago I started getting very itchy areas on random parts of my body.  These can appear just about anywhere.  There is not much rash - just a small raised spot (like a small pimple).  The allergist found nothing and my dermatologist is going nuts trying to figure out what this can be.  He sent me for a very extensive blood test and CT scan.  Neither turned up anything.  He believes this is autoimmune in nature - responds to steroidal creams and Prednisone.

I was wondering if anyone else has encountered anything like this and received a diagnosis?

Thanks.

Ross
