I only ask, as my doc prescribed a fairly new cream TPS as I recall he referred to it as a topical analgesic with gabapentin as an active ingredient to address specific topical nerve issues which could arise as I become more active.

Hi Mark,
At my epidural appointment last week, my doctor did prescribe a Compounded Pain cream. The insurance company adjuster has really been a difficult person to deal with on this matter (I went over her head, big mistake). Hopefully the cream will be here this week, but probably not in time to see if it helps before my appointment this week.
