What do you do for Neuropathy itch?

Good Afternoon, I've had two different Lidocaine compounds made for me, but neither of them worked as well as the Aspercreme. The benefit only lasts a couple of hours, but anything to give some relief is a blessing. I read the information in the link and I think I'm going to email it to my dermatologist. She keeps trying to give me more oral medicine to break the itch cycle, and it just doesn't work. I had an MRI of my brain, but the doctor said she saw nothing to indicate a problem.

Good afternoon, @bjbednarz Thanks for the feedback. I agree with your conclusion. And I also had an MRI of my brain at the insistence of my neurologist. (you can see how much I did not know in the beginning). When I asked what he saw....he said "nothing concerning". When I asked for more feedback......he simply said, it only shows some signs of aging....which I couldn't disagree with at my age. The "Chris of today" would insist on seeing the results and given an explanation.

So @bjbednarz, Have you heard from your dermatologist? If so, please share what you are comfortable sharing. And don't go away....we are learning from you and your experience.

May you be content and at ease.
Chris
