Thanks, Ray.
I'm 78 and only started feeling
Like I'm walking on pillows but no pain. I have bought a supplement with all of the B's but didn't know there was a difference. I'll have to check.
I have been on two devices 2 times a day. One a tens unit used by Cancer Centers of America and a red light device. Haven't noticed an improvement although I have been using for few months. Also taking a supplement of ten Chinese mushrooms.
Not sure if anything is working but better than doing nothing other than taking gabapentine which was all my "expert" neurologist can offer.
Good luck with your B's,
Grampa Lou

Good afternoon, Grandpa Lou

Your words ("I'm not sure if anything is working, but it's better than doing nothing...") had me nodding. "Uh-huh, I know what you mean!" That's why my medicine chest is overflowing with medications – supplements, too – because I'm unable to pick one up in my hands and say, with certainty, "You work, so you're a keeper," or "You don't work, so out you go!" 🙂

Cheers!

Grampa Lou,
Glad you didn't take gabapentin. I have no pain either my neurologist said all he could offer was gabapentin but said it does nothing to treat neuropathy it is just for the pain so no reason to take it. Exercise seems to help more than anything else.
