Just received approval for treatment. Looking for some comments from others who have experienced it.

There are a few discussions of this if you put the name into search like this one: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/succes-with-qutenza-or-not/ or this one: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/has-anyone-tried-capsaicin/

I tried Qutenza. It comes with 4 doses, 1 treatment every 3 months. I only got moderate relief for 3 or 4 weeks. I didn't renew my prescription. It was not worth the cost.

How was it administered? Did your doctor have a lot of experience with the product? I have both CRPS and SFN. Do you have both? Just wondering if it might affect one dx more than the other. Thanks for comments.
