Hi there, madam @oceanlady22.
How does the Salonpas work for you? I have seen the ads on TV but haven't heard of anyone using them. Of course, if they are sexy....that may be enough. I wanted to mention something to you about the 78 degree temperature. I have actually been told to reduce the temperature during the night. I was waking up in a sweat and my PJ's were soaked. I now keep the night temperature between 69 and 72. I think I do sleep better with less pain. And my PjJ's stay dry. Just a thought.

Good Morning Chris, I will try lowering the thermostat. I swear by the Salonpas with Lidocaine. I use it on my side for the scar tissue I have from radiation. I slept pretty good last night with the Salonpas on my calves with the 2 pair of socks. Got up at 1:30 am went right back to sleep. I got up again with pains in my left calf & bad pain in my hands at 4am. I decided to stay up. I try not to take painkillers at night & save them for the daytime. I hope you have a good day. Today may reach 75 and I'm hoping the warm weather helps. Last Spring & Summer I was at chemo & radiation so it truly was a Lost Summer.
