Hi Lori,

How have you been? Thanks so much for following up

Unfortunately I am not able to get hold of the medication after finishing it. Will have to wait for my turn to see the public institution here for skin specialist, which won't be till months away, or even next Jan/Feb

For now, I'm battling a bout of nerve/hand/arm issue/pain etc. since May still, which remains my top priority now as I need my hands in good shape for work especially

But I will update you if indeed Tacrolimus ointment is working well.

I hope all is well with you. Thank you once again for writing in

I hope you find some relief for your hand/nerve/arm pain! That’s difficult to work around. I was experiencing similar issues earlier this year and have been having regular sessions with a massage therapist who has really helped me. All of my symptoms are gone. There was nerve impingement which has been relieved with the massaging of the muscles and tissue around them. That might be something for you to try!
Wishing you well with your other problem and that you’re able to get a refill on the tacrolimus ointment.
I’ve been using it routinely and it’s really helped. Good luck to you.
