Hello Stephina. My podiatrist had me use a prescription for my feet. Recently, he stopped it. I now use Aspercreme with Lidocaine Maximum Strength 4% Lidocaine. What a difference.

Well, I should not be posting this here I suppose but what the hell. I would never have believed it and found out by pure coincidence. A very small amount of weed in the end of a cigarette just before you go to sleep - Zero Neuropathic pain in my feet. Don't even both with those expensive CBD things, they don't work. It's the THC that does. I don't want to feel any effects from it, hence having it very last thing before I go to sleep. Also helps you sleep better. Just my opinion, but it works for me. I stopped for a few days as I was put onto Ritalin, apparently not a good idea with Ritalin. Have stopped the Ritalin as I was getting no benefit from it and found loads of negatives and no positive effects. Feeling so much better again having stopped it, but now the neuropathic pains are back. So back to the trustworthy old weed and tomorrow the pains will be gone. Don't shoot the messenger, just saying that is what worked for me.
