I've recently changed the location of where I'm putting my off-brand Nicorette CQ clear patch, to my chest basically right on my heart. For me this solved the issue of my intense muscle aches down my arms when putting the patch on either shoulder. However, I've found that the second I put the patch on, I have an INTENSE and unforgiving itch take over right where I put the patch. The skin under the patch and around it is bright red and irritated. I've found that the itch will go away if I can leave it alone for more than about 10 minutes but it's incredibly uncomfortable and annoying! Has anyone else had this problem??

I believe everyone experiences that response. My Doctor told me I could use cortisone cream after I take the patch off. I found that it goes away on it's own. Congrats on your quit. You are doing this.
