What Could Be The Reason Behind Burning,pain Between Shoulder Blades,skin Sensitivity On Chest,internal Itching For A Patient With Multiple Myeloma And Diabetes?

Is there such a thing as Shingles without a rash? My husband has all the symptoms (burning, stabbing pain between shoulder blades, skin sensitivity on chest and under arms, internal itching) but he has no rash! What can this be? He also has multiple myeloma and diabetes.

Initially pain can appear in Shingles and latter rash can occur. pain is high. Just itching is rare both can occur together. if no rash then it is not shingles. He needs to be checked for other conditions, fungal infections commonly cause itch, also parasitic infestations, both need to be excluded
