http://www.doctorbyphone.com - VIP's save $20 on regular consultations and $70 on Same Day Service. How does it work?: Complete your order to by 10am EST (including medical records and ID), be available for a consultation between 10am and 2pm EST and you will have your medicine by the next day.
Here's another idea; break out the heating pad and ice pack while you are taking the med and waiting for it to work. Alternate them on the area of pain.
1. It does distract the nerve a tiny bit.
2. You feel like you are doing something about it (empowerment)
3. You are maybe distracting yourself from waiting for relief that unfortunately this med is not as effective in delivering. Perhaps the ice/heat will let the med sneak in there a little more.
4. No shame in it not working. Call the Dr. Let him know.
Good Luck!
