Question Hello Vanessa....

Wishing relief and help comes along soon.

Sorry, I mixed up the ID's here... I meant to put "Hope" in the title! DUH?

Can you tell me more about the Lidoderm patches with ketamine? I'd like to research that. Thanks...

Also I'd worry about so much lidocaine 24hrs/day. The patches should put the nerves to sleep for a while, as you
take them off for 12 hrs. Continuous application can affect the heart, you know. I could not find documentation that it is
safe to use them that way.

BTW I have burning feet too, and find that the patches work better for me,
on the tops of the feet. Have you tried that way?
