Take note, no one among the 7 neurologists I saw ever mentioned about the existence of such cream. It helps me a lot in my pain. Of course, I am also on several supplements. Aside from my regular supplements, soaking in warm water with epsom salt and applying the epsom lotion at bedtime is part of my daily routine. My cream consists of Ketamine, Baclofen, Clonidine and Gabapentin. Its covered by my insurance.
Hi Thanks for responding. I know what you mean about the touch of sheets on your skin, for that matter, blankets anything. I find when I am having a flair up I am very sensitive to fabric on m feet.

I know what you mean 7 neurologist and not one of them mentioned the compound cream. I can believe it. I am trying to get a prescription over to the compound pharmacy for 2 weeks. It's a hot mess.

Had to go to Pharmacy on other side of town have never heard of them before. For some reason my doctor's office can't get it straight. He never heard of it and was willing to write the prescription I don't know what the issue is now with them.

I am looking forward to this cream and getting relief. Where do you get the Epson Cream you feel that really helps you.

I am glad it helps with your pain and does it help with the burning pain. If so that would be a miracle my toes and feet are always burning.

I just had a flare up and think it had to do with a piece of cream pie I had for my husband's birthday. It was 4 days of misery for me and finally it has calmed down.

Some Walgreen's are now carrying it too.

I used to order my epsom lotion online - not Amazon (forgot the brand but it was expensive). When MrsD mentioned here about the Morton's Epsom Lotion at Walmart, I bought it and the good thing is its cheap!

Thank you! I did find the crème at Walmart. Have been using the compound cream for 2 weeks now and it really helps. My feet are numb and burn still but it's tolerable.can do everything I used to do and am not slowed down by pain. Actually when I busy working I am not reminded of my sick feet and ankles. It has traveled to the ankles noticed that last week. The compound is something worth looking into for PNs. The cost with medical insurance is $20. I apply the crème 3 times a day for 2 minutes.
