HORRIBLE!! I don't recommend ever doing that.  That took two rounds.  Then I did both arms but couldn't stand the pain and gave up.  About a year and a half I did both arms again but didn't get any results for my pain.  Only after a little but of sun this spring my forearms looked so red and irritated I decided to try once more but this time one arm at a time.  I'm on day 9 and already I'm in such pain.  Blisters and red irritating looking abrasions.  I'm only sticking with it because I see how great my legs look.My question is, has anyone used the two creams together like this?  If anyone has, on what day did you finally stop the applications and let the healing begin?  Being a "bad patient" I won't be seeing the doc until a week from monday and I can't quite remember how long to use it.  Believe me, as you all know, I'm ready to quit NOW!  Thanks, marilyn  cmblsupkid Sat, 13 Jun 2009 00:00:00 GMT
