Hi, I had this sent to me by the National Vulvodynia Association and want to urge everyone to read this. I am so scared! I am so dependant on my 5% lidocaine for Vulvodynia and so scared this will be taken away! I don't know what I would do if it weren't for my compounding pharmacy making this for me! Please check this out! https://secure2.convio.net/iacprx/si...d4ig97n1.app7a

Thanks a lot everyone. It means so much! I am actually getting some of my family to fill this form letter out also. I am beside myself about this! I really depend on that 5% strength of lidocaine. I talked to a very helpful pharmacist today that told me they are proposing this bill to start in the fall. Please keep up the letters going in. I cannot believe they can do this to all the people out there who are suffering and need compounded meds! ~AnnFacebook- Ann Stockmeyer RachingerComment
