I think that its effectiveness for any individual depends on your daily metabilism. In other words it works for me somedays better than others but it always works.
I developed PN after a bout with a serious bacterial intestinal disorder which landed me in the hospital for 20 days and I went into Systemic Shock., which means my body organs were shutting down. Out of that in evolved into nerve damage in the lower torso. Quite painful at times and always with me to some degree when standing or attempting to from a sitting position.

Anyway, I saw the advertisement and I called Neuragen. (This was before CVS and Right Aid carried the product) I ordered the VERY small bottle and since it is a concentrate used very little on my fingertip and lightly rubbed in to the arae of pain. Within minutes I was no longer in pain ! In order to make the stuff last and in order to spread the oil over the entire lower torso, I mixed the oil with Johnson's Baby Cream. Johnson's Baby Bedtime lotion worked best for me. As I said earlier it works better some days than others but always works to some level. I would not do without it ! On days when the pain is extremely bad I may end up using this mixture that I spoke of about 4 -5 times a day. Additionally, I had received a promo email from CVS which had a place to correspond. I did so and told them of my experiences with the stuff and recommended that they carry it. They wrote b ack after about 10 days, thanked me and told me that they looked into it and decided not to carry the product. I then responded back to them that they would be doing a great service to their Diabetic and other nerve pain sufferers.
They agin wrote back that they had agin looked at the product and had decided to carry it ! I am sure that I was not the only person who told them of the product and I guess Neuragen's Sales team probably had something to do with it. If you mix the stuff like I did it can last a considerable time and in fact Neuragen recommends this method if the pained area is large. Great stuff and I can't say enough about it.
Have you ever tried putting the Johnson's lotion on WITHOUT adding the Neurogen?

The reason I ask is that I have found that ANYTHING applied to the skin blocks the nerve receptors to the AIR, and changes the pain sensations.

Some additions make this more pronounced...like Menthol which stimulates cooling nerves so the heat/burning ones are overridden.
