I think any info is helpful. I don’t think I have encountered a doctor or a nurse who had heard of it off the top of their head.

Georgia-It seems because of the opioid crisis that doctors won’t prescribe many of the old drugs. I understand your concern. When I went to the psychiatrist, for the same reason you are, I knew she would know nothing about PN unless she, or someone she loves had it. I printed out and took the best information I could with me. It pointed out the anxiety this condition causes and it’s vicious cycle. Thankfully she did see me as a whole person. We will hope yours will too.

I agree with Tina-Ambassador keep it hydrated. I wake up with painful skin in the night if I don’t hydrate it before bed.

No, and the only one who showed any interest is my dentist.
