Well I've tried it once so far and it did help but it is too soon to know for sure since my PN waxes and wanes.

IH8, you should try the Salonpas Deep Relieving Gel. It is strong and really helps for pain. You could also check out a place that does Rebuilder treatments to see if that does anything for you. I have one, I use every day. On the flip side, there is nothing that helps with the numbness.

I'll keep you updated on the compounding cream.
