Anyway, it didn't bother me at all. I used it knees to toes. Made all the difference in the world. When I have taken my baclofen and still hurt this is the way to go. You would think morphine and norco would take care of these sensations but they take care of other types of pain - not spastisity or nerve pain. Thank you for the tip. It's nice to use something that I can pick up something at the store that really works and I don't need to see a doc first.

Doc is going to keep me at that. So, I thought I would just get used to what it isn't taking care of. Went to CVS this evening and purchased the "Fast Acting Therapy Aspercreme Heat Pain Relieving Gel" Hopefully this is the right kind.
