Default I've been using it for a week now

And it really helps with the creepy crawlers. It is instant relief for that. It is soothing and I haven't had any adverse effects. Very promising!

Rather, I've found it very soothing when my legs and feet are tingling or have the creepy crawlers feeling, or even temperature control issues (cold chills). It seems to work very well and to maintain my skin, since I have lots of dryness and my hands and fingers, and feet have seen some serious skin changes, flaky, dry, white patches, etc. I have ordered 3 more and will keep using it. Perhaps others will find it useful. Cliffman had written me about it a short while ago, so perhaps he has also found it useful.

Hi Pinkynose,

Thank you for the feedback. I just received 2 tubes in the mail yesterday and tried it this morning. Hopefully it will help with burning pain...smells nice too.

I've put it on my Amazon wish list. They've raised the free shipping to $49 !! so it will be a short while as we add our needs to that list for another order.

You know in the past, Vits A and D have been in diaper rash remedies. You can still buy that --but it is in ointment form and greasy. I have used it however for hemorrhoid and fissure healing and sometimes on my feet.

There are also oral supplements for the skin. One nice formula is ACEs with zinc by Carlson's. (vits A, C, E, with selenium and zinc).

I'm glad to hear this cream is proving useful and catching on.

Pinkey, you're exactly right about it getting rid of the tingling and/or creepy crawlers feeling, at least that's precisely my experience with it. It can get bad for me some mornings when I awake, so I put it on immediately and voila, it's gone! If D is immuno-suppressive, then this function makes sense, but this needn't be the mechanism of action, or the only one. Who knows, but it does the job.

I hope it's as useful for you too, Cliffman and MrsD.

our NOW cream has been delivered from Amazon.

It is very nice. It is working already for my feet to reduce dryness and the awful purple color they turn. Also hubby is
finding quick results on his psoriasis.

We are both old now, so I wonder if skin in the elderly is
more likely to respond to this wonderful cream.

So my thanks to David! This cream is far beyond just a vitamin D supplement...it is highly therapeutic in other ways!

Glad to hear it's doing so much good for you, MrsD. Precisely this:

"This cream is far beyond just a vitamin D supplement...it is highly therapeutic in other ways!"

I'm using a tube a month now. From my knees down to my toes.

I really like it too and have added a couple other foot therapy products from iherb. My feet have gotten so worse in the last 5 yrs, went downhill since hip surgery and advanced OA.
Thanks again and I tell others about it too. I had burning in my toe areas and talked about it here, but it's not reared it's ugly head in a month or so. C

So glad to hear that you've had such a positive experience with it, and with the other cream. I use it each morning. Takes the pain and so much else away. If it didn't keep me awake at night because of the D, I would use it before bedtime too.

Help Mrs. D...Magnesium Lotion

I am going to buy the Now vitamin D that was recommended here.

I get a charley-horse almost nightly in both legs. I am putting a magnesium lotion on (Ancient Minerals) about every other night. It seems to help.

My question is, do I still take a magnesium supplement, and if so what kind? There is magnesium in my daily vitamin and calcium supplement.

It's an awful thing when it hits in both legs during the night because I have to jump out of bed to relieve the pain, and I'm so afraid of falling. My neuropathy has progressed significantly over the past 15 years, but so far is only in my feet and ankles.

I'm wondering if you ever heard of anyone developing plantar warts because of PIN. I had a wart removed from the shin on my left leg, and then a plantar wart on the ball of my left foot. About a month later I had one removed on the ball of my right foot which took 3 times before a Dermatologist froze it off. It seems to be better now. The pain after the treatment was excruciating, worse than labor pains. I was actually crying with pain for a day after. The doctor did tell my the pain would get worse before it got better. I hope I never have to go through that again.

Plantar warts are a virus, and I don't understand how I got them because I never walk barefoot. They were on the bottom of both feet in exactly the same place. That's why I wondered if it had anything to do with PIN. But of course the doctors don't know.
