Default I webbed it up

ON NIH just as YOU spelled it. Go figger?

Predators exist everywhere. IF you look up their web site? The list of ingredients isn't all that impressive. Even tho they call it 'proprietary'.
If you buy that, I know of a few horse linaments that have similar ingredients that are much cheaper and far more readily available! At least I know the linaments have been used on sensitive skinned animals for decades? You can buy a quart/plus for the price of this stuff. I've tried the linaments too, and they don't work for PN tho...at least not the kind I have? - j

Wise word... bury it?

Lightbulb just geranium oil...

we discuss geranium oil here:

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/sh...t=geranium+oil

It is available as geranium oil at iherb.com by NOW for about
$10.00 for 30ml.

Listed also on the label is St.John's wort in 3X dilution.
Quote:
A remedy that is diluted 1:10, involves one part of the remedy to 9 parts of the diluent (which is usually a 20% alcohol water solution). This 1: 10 dilution is called a 1X dilution. Making another 1:10 of the first 1X is called 2X. Doing it again makes it 3X.

So why on earth would Geranium Oil work on PN pain? My goodness. Thirty Bucks for a teeny little bottle. I asked the pharmacist (because you can return EVERYTHING to CVS), I asked her "if we are not satisifed with this product, can we return it?" and she shook her head and said: "no, if you open it, you keep it".

I looked at her and said "we don't want it, you keep it".

She laughed.

Question There is

There is a patent in place for geranium oil.

It supposedly works somewhat...but I wonder why we don't hear more about it.

We sure hear about Lyrica!

Let's see if I have this straight. I can go into a florist, (or wherever one goes to buy Geranium Oil), and I buy some, and Alan massages it on his toes, and his PN will go away??

Is this possible?? Because, although Alan's PN is nowhere near the level it was years ago, he still has his moments. He would try this in a heartbeat if it has a chance of working. (The geranium oil i mean, NOT THE $30 BOTTLE OF THE STUFF).

Post Mel...

Did you read the thread? Marlene explains how to use the essential oil safely. And only one type of geranium is useful.

You buy these in healthfood stores, or online at places like
iherb. And no, it does not cost $30.

You only use a couple of drops at a time.

The Neuragen claims St.John's Wort as the active ingredient.
If you click the label on the site, it gives the ingredients.
Geranium oil is part of the carrier essential oil.

I don't know much about St.John'sWort and PN.

A pharmacist gave me a sample small bottle. It was too small to know if it could work. I did not see any improvement.

Default I bought some

I saw the same ad ran out and bought it, here is my take:
Geranium oil {perfume} is very very strong I only use it when I am alone.
It's aroma therapy nothing more.
It's a distraction to your conscious mind sometimes that's not a bad thing particuly when your alone.

Default It works

I have no axe to grind and I would not attempt to persuade anyone to buy the expensive Neuragen. I bought it in desparation for neuropathy - tremendous foot pain which would not respond to any prescribed medical treatment. All I can say is, it really works.
