I can't see where it would hurt to try this, though.

I haven't even received them yet. He wanted my cardiologist to approve the use with all the heart meds I take. I'm hoping to have them by the weekend. I'll try your suggestions with instep and ankle first.
Lidocaine is a topical anesthetic, meaning it only numbs what it directly touches. So gluing a patch over unaffected skin in hopes it will have a deeper affect will only give you numb skin.
