In their quest to get me on a DMT that doesn't want to keep me in bed, I've been asked to make a choice of the two above. Thoughts? Horror & Success stories please.

Burning legs and feet

Does anyone use cold compression socks or cooling blankets for burning sensations in lower limbs? Wanting to know what’s best. I know lots of people take Gabapentin but I am really struggling to get a doctors appointment and the pain is keeping me up at night!
