Neuropathy Will Not Run My Life

Kathy D.

Transdermal Therapeutics Patient

Pain has become a consistent part of my life. Recently, however, my pain has lessened because of a topical pain cream by doctor prescribed. I was diagnosed with a disease that leaves my feet in pain and sometimes numb. The pain and numbness worsened over time where I was unable to walk or even sleep comfortably at night! I was forced to start a pain management system that included injections in my back for my spinal stenosis and to also ease the pain from the sciatic nerves. Then my doctor recommended and prescribed Transdermal Therapeutics cream for me. This cream has helped ease that constant pain that I suffered for so long.

I am proud to say that this medication is now a part of my nightly routine. Unlike other medications in the past, there is no sticky residue which irritated my skin. Also, I am now able to use the cream with ease and quickly feel relief.

I continue using this cream because of its ability to ease my pain which in turn helps me sleep better at night. I can now sleep with less pain than before and it is enough to get me through the night. I can attribute my renewed nightly sleep schedule to this incredible cream.

Neuropathy Will Not Run My Life

Nerve damage can be caused by several different ways but the most common cause is diabetes, according to the American Podiatric Medical Association.
