I'd like a libido booster but no gin. I want some feeling in my body when it kicks in.

No. Viagra doesn't work for women, despite what we want to believe. Viagra increases blood flow to the genitals. For men, increased blood flow equals erection and erection equals "whoopee!" Viagra's purpose is not to create desire, but to make sex possible by creating an erection. For women, increased blood flow means simply increased blood flow. That will help with lubrication, but it won't get you in the mood. Old articles (1998) suggested that it would help women, but more recent studies, including one by the maker of Viagra, have shown that it does not benefit women.
Sex is very different for men and women. Physical, cultural, social - who knows exactly what combination. But women need their brains stimulated to get in the mood, not just their bodies. Try reading some erotica. Or watch a movie (especially one that's geared more toward women, with an actual storyline). Deal with all of the things that are distracting you mentally, or teach yourself to put them aside during sex.
At this point, there is no proven substance that increases a woman's libido. There are a lot of claims otherwise, but nothing with scientific studies to back it up.

Viagra has similar effects on sex drive in both men and women, so you don't need a different form. The problem is that studies that have been done so far are small scale and your primary care provider might not be aware of them. Maybe if you brought a copy of a report to them (see below). There have been some other recent small scale studies that indicate that Viagra also helps people who suffer from Raynard's. Raynard's is a disease where the blood vessels to the hands constrict too much in cool weather.
