I am fed up with stupid nerve pain it is driving me round the twist. On my last visit to see the pain specialist he prescribed me Lidocaine Hydrochloride patches as i am awaiting to have my nerves fryed dont know whether it will work but it certainly worth a try. To start off with the Lidocaine Hydrochloride 5% patches did off some releif but unfortunately it has returned & i am almost finished them now as he only prescribed me 10, He told me when i was finished them to get my doctor to prescribe me some more.
