What do you do for the burning skin feeling?

It's neuropathy that causes that feeling like your skin is on fire. That's common with Fibro. I wake up with on my feet , like they are on fire. Gabapentin helps, but what's helped more is a lotion I found that has CBD oil in it. It really seems to help calm them down.

So far only gabapentin helps ease the burning for me (lyrica didn't help at all, is that weird? I thought they were kind of the same medication), I need to look into the lotion with the CBD oil to see how that does.
