Hello. I'm new to this group and look forward to learning how to handle some of my health concerns. I have nerve damage from the 6 weeks of radiation I endured 10 years ago from cancer.

Ten years ago I was treated for anal cancer. The nerve damage has grown unbearable over the past 5 years. I suffer with radiation proctitis and lumbar multilevel degenerative disc disease and a fractured sacrum. My question is, how many mg of R-ALA should I take daily? For 7 days I've been taking 100mg Doctor's Best Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid with BioEnhanced Na-RALA . It cost me $19.77 for 60 caps at Amazon. I don't know how long it takes for this product to ease the nerve pain. I just know that I am not feeling an improvement. My greatest desire is to be able to walk without pain. My hip joints lock up on me. My back hurts so bad I have to find a place to sit. I have no life and it's really getting to me. I'm an activity seeking person and need relief from chronic pain. Once again, how may daily mg should I take? BTW, I just started seeing a PT and I believe they will help me. But I need pain relief now. Help!
