@domiha Mike, your post regarding RockSauce caught my attention as I too have all numbness, no pain, sensory motor PN. I am normally not one to experiment with things that claim to help with PN but, at times, I will give something a try. Do you use the RockSauce once or several times a day. I recall hearing about this some time ago, but I thought it was mostly helpful involving pain, so I didn't try it out. Many of us know there is no cure but, if something comes along that will help cope with PN, again, I will sometimes try it. Please let us know how you make out. Thanks - Ed

Hi, @njed I just opened and applied the cream yesterday afternoon. This was my first time since I "discovered it" at PT. I used gloves to apply it, though I'm sure it could be done with simply a good hand washing afterwards. It gave my feet a nice, warm feeling for the next few hours. I'm thinking it would be good to apply right before going out for a walk. I've used the IcyHot, and the menthol is refreshing.... but just not the same as this warming feeling. My feet were not burning, mind you. They simply felt like I had just soaked them in a nice tub of warm water for awhile.... but the sensation lasted longer. When I went to Amazon to order it, I noticed that there was some in a a roll-on applicator, but the reviews were not good for that. So I purchased the cream with a pump dispenser. I think it should last me for quite awhile! Best wishes! Mike

We're three of a kind: numbness, no pain, sensory-motor PN. For the longest time, I've been reading posts touting the benefits of topicals like Capizan and Icy Hot, but I have always thought they'd be most helpful in reducing pain, and so I paid them no mind. But now, reading these recent posts about topicals and numbness … well, you've aroused my curiosity, to say the least.
