Dreamer:

At the current time, I use Joint-Flex...expensive but works well at the moment.

Ben-gay and so many others I've been through have ended up inflaming my skin and

are very painful even after scrubbing them off. What my skin can tolerate

changes quite frequently. Even hand creams do the same thing. I am able to use

Thermacare pads, however, they are expensive also and so probably never will

become intolerant to them (can't afford to buy them).

Another question:....does anyone have extremely sensitive skin? For

example....Mine has been for quite a few years and it is in retrospect to when

the FMS raised it's ugly head. It is not painful for a fly to land on me but

darn close to it and the moment they touch I go bananas trying to get them away.

I see others (normals) who can let a fly run all around their arm and not notice

they are even there.

Have had the extremely swollen ankles and feet since last Friday and a water

retention of at least 12 lbs, however, the diuretic I take seems to helping

somewhat finally...I've lost all but about 3 lbs or so. Haven't had a bout with

the ankles like this in months and months....

Later all...I do read everything even if I don't respond personally and you all

are in my thoughts and prayers. Wishing you a better tomorrow as well as all

the tomorrows after that.

I never tried joint flex. I think my mom has, and I think she has tried the

thermacare, too. I was so surprised to have that happen from the ben gay. my

skin is not sensitive- but- gosh for that while there- yes a fly would have

caused me severe agony...but I do not know if it was skin, it was deep. I was

so out of it in pain- who knows?

I am sorry about your feet, that sounds miserable! I do not know what it feels

like, but I am imagining it cannot feel good at all!
