Good Morning Pixie, thought I'd just let you know that bought some Ginger Pain Patches. But Oh my gosh they didn't work for me..I cut one in half ,put one half on one hand and the other half on the other hand. After about 10 minutes my hands started to get really warm, but then they just got so painful and burning. I was just about to take them off and my Physiotherapist came,I was shaking with the pain that was tearing through my body .When she saw the Patches she took them off and ran the cold water for me to put my hands under. She said not everyone can use these Patches and it also depends on what other medications your on.Course i never thought of that..Oh well thats another type of Pain Relief Medication that can go in the bin.So if your G.P decides to try you on something else, be careful. Take Care Glojo

i am not on any meds at all , because i was given so many drugs when i was 6yrs old i had menningitus plus tb i had a very lot of drugs pumped into me as a child, but when i was of a legal age i refused to take any more and i use other methods like heat n bath treatments , but unfortunatley i must start again as i am in constant pain daily and fatigued alot . so i am going to my doctors tomorrow to ask for a pain patch rather than taking tablets which have other side effects ,that will can stop me from driving . if i stop driving i will go insane being house bound

I’ve had these before when I had kidney stones. I can just remember sleeping a lot.

I now use lidocaine patches which make the painful area numb. I wear them 12 hours on and 12 hours off. I do have painkillers as well but without the patches my back is so painful.
