Hi Wendi:

One of the gyns I saw last month suggested it to me, gave me a sample, and told me to talk to my primary who is an internist...I called her, she gave me an Rx for it, and I see her in follow-up for it on Monday. So yes, ask your PCP, who should monitor the results. It does take 3-4 weeks to kick in, but it has cut my pain about in half, and if it can work for you, go for it! Whatever it takes, right? Pain-free wishes to you.
