For those who had it how long with treatment did it take to go away? Or did it?...It's driving me nuts!


Thanks,
Ann

Hi Ann
There are times when it's less intense for me but it's always there.

Sorry, you probably wanted to hear something else [Smile]

Hope it goes away soon!

Hey Ann,

Ask your doctor about Metanx. It is a prescription form of B12, folic acid and B6. The website explains in great detail about how it works. Basically the RX form is a more active/absorbable state. I'm sorry I can't explain it better right now, my brain is tired!

Anyways, I started it about a month and a half ago? Around there. I was taking B12 shots and still struggled with progressive peripheral neuropathy. Metanx was designed for people with diabetic neuropathy but my doc figured it would be worth a try. It is alot cheaper than the B12 shots and actually seems to be helping more. Things have gotten a little better this month instead of worse. Which is huge for me.

I don't know if it will work for you but it is worth a try. Numbness and tingling and pain are no fun.

Take care Ann and good luck:)

lakes,

I had it on left side head to toe at first, and then it went right side,then a couple months ago went away.

It's not constant anymore.

Once in awhile it will come back but it's not back.
It will go away, it just takes time. [bonk]

Hi,
Thanks guys. Lymeherx can you tell me how long of treatment you had before it went away? I could look into that metanx. I am lready taking so many pills so guess that would be a last resort.


Take Care,
Ann
