Found Some Pain Relief
 

I bought this stuff called Cobroxin and it worked very well. I bought it from Walgreens. I was very skeptical at first but my brother had used a similar product that worked for him. Depending on where you buy it is 10 to 30 bucks for a bottle. I paid around 20. It works better than Vicodin for me but without the side effects. It comes in an oral spray or a rub on gel. I'm using the gel.

Cobroxin Review ? How Well Does It Really Work?

It's homeopathic and I figured it was BS because homeopathy sounds like hocus pocus but unless the 80% of people who report good to excellent results with this stuff are susceptible to the power of suggestion this stuff may be the real deal.

I am rubbing it on my neck and C-spine and it works for me.:)

PLEASE GIVE IT A TRY AND REPORT BACK!

may have to..
 

Try this. I've been on "big guns" pain med now (one in particular) for 11 years same dose never even taking as much as prescribed. All of a sudden I had to change pharmacies because of insurance carrier changing who they use (now use express scripts) so switched to CVS. Had a prob w/them re filling my script and anyway now I've been trying to reach my PM's scheduler for an appt. all week and they will not call me back! I've never had this happen before! I even called the backup scheduler and no return call yet. I called Mon, Tues (twice), Thurs and didn't call today just to give a break but am wondering WTF of course! I've never done anything that would remotely make me suspect for anything re wanting to terminate my patient doctor relationship except WC no longer pays for anything but just prescriptions related visits~ No more ESIs or anything of that nature.

So will check out this med tho I'll probably have to see if I can either find another doctor locally to prescribe for me (my pain med) or go into a detox center and get off the crap and be have a great deal of pain to live with.

Thanks for letting us know about this stuff and when I get and try it I'll report back. At least it's OTC and legal!!!

Kevin,

I'm correcting your link... it is pointing to thier hospice care page. I made it point to their page for transdermal creams.

I clicked through to their order form to see what they have. I'm intrigued by the creams for neuropathic pain that have gabapentin. This drug was helpful for me when I suffered from severe leg pain related to lumbar problems, but I hated the side effects of the high dose oral med. I don't understand how topical application of the drug can deal with the perception of pain that originates far away from the site of the pain???

I'll be interested in learning more... if anyone tries this, please post. I have some injections scheduled for Friday... I'll ask the doctor about these creams.

Because the pharmacy and transdermal creams may be of interest to spine patients, I'll leave it.

Mark,
Good Luck with your injections
