Question Cream for PN

Hi all,


I have for a long time just put up with the burning pain from PN. The worst is the bottoms of my feet....they scream at me. I have tried neurontin, lyrica, cymbalta, and lamictal. None have been effective and I'm having a hard time coping with the pain anymore.

About 15 years ago I had a sural nerve biopsy. I suffered from disabling phantom pain for months afterward. The doctor gave me some sort of prescription cream to ease the pain. It didn't resolve it, but I remember it did take the edge off some.

Sadly, I have no idea of the name. I was hoping someone here might know what this is and whether it could be effective for short term pain relief...even if just enough to get to sleep at night.

Thanks,
Anita
