Hi Chris, yes I used it for 2 or 3 years. As the SFN symptoms became more prominent, my neurologist would change the recipe with the compound pharmacist. I no longer have the jar with the recipe on it. Sorry. When I arrived in MN, there were no neurologists in my town and I was unable to find anyone who could talk to me about compounding. The small tub or jar was $75 plus shipping. For a while, I kept getting it shipped but then I no longer had the same clinician and my insurance was different so I switched to medical cannabis.
I was very lucky to have been introduced to Papa & Barkley early in my journey. They now have Releaf Balm in 1:3 CBD/THC for acute pain and 3:1 CBD/THC for chronic pain. I keep both handy. It is especially helpful with the tingles, numbness, and pain in my hands. When the barometric pressure takes a nosedive, it becomes my go-to for comfort. I have also been able to taper off some of the gabapentin and replace it with P & B for my hands and wrists in the evening when they act up a bit fiercely.
Hope this suffices for the time being. Do you have a compounding pharmacy near you?
May you have comfort and ease.
Chris
