I don't think it really matters where you put it as long as you find a place where it will stay attached. I think the suggestions by the drug co are just where they think it will be least likely to rub off. I don't see why you can't try new places till you find the one that sticks the best.
I am having luck putting it on my shoulders/back and upper arms. I'd just keep trying new spots and be sure to give it a few good slaps when you put it on. Also, make sure your skin is dry and oil free. If your thighs work, switch back and forth each day and vary the location slightly so your not putting it on the exact same spot every other day. Perhaps try your lower back.
How are you feeling/doing since starting? Good luck! Rob
