I tried that Morton Epsom lotion last night, took away the itching and neuropathy on my legs and feet. I like the stuff.

Morton Lotion
 
I have looked in 3 stores here for that I am in Il and none seem to carry that guess I have to order some...

WalMart and Walgreen's.... online at Amazon.

Check the WalMart website and put in your zip code to see if your
local WalMart has it.

Most stores don't carry it yet. Walgreen's just started carrying it.

I would guess Walgreen's would be more expensive than WalMart.

Hi mrsD- I checked out the price for Morton's Foot Lotion on Amazon.ca, as I thought that I would like to give it a try, as you recommend it highly. I was flabbergasted at the price of the item and the cost for shipping! Our local Walmarts do not carry it either.

I pay $5.98 a bottle for mine.

I just went on Amazon.ca
$29.00 Canadian!

I sure hope our prices don't go up to that high! GADS. :eek:
(I was worried that the low prices here were introductory...and would change with time... but not that much! )

This is the US Amazon price....

I just priced an item from Ebay from Canada, which was very small and not heavy....and its postage delivery alone to my zip which is not far from Quebec.... was $25.00 just for the shipping!
Needless to say I am not bidding on it.

You might suggest to the manager of your local Walmart that they order some. Hey are usually willing to do that on a trial basis. After they order it, if it doesn't seem to sell they will discontinue, but if they will order it, you might could stock up.

Just a reminder:

Do not apply magnesium lotion to broken skin, or mucus membranes. It will sting. It is designed only for intact non-irritated skin. If you have scratched your itching too much, you will have to heal up before applying the magnesium lotion.

I have always really liked Sarna anti itching cream. It has worked for me every time.

I have only very recently used the Morton's Lotion and find it very soothing.

I bought the Morton's lotion because mrsD recommended it, and let me tell you, it actually brought relief to my arms and legs. :)
