Thank you for your detailed response. My neurologist feels my neuropathy stems from my being treated for rheumaotid arthritis and its affliation. The higher levels of B6 showed up in blood tests. I will have to back track to see which B6 was included in my mega vitamin meds and take it from there.

I am without a practicing neurologist at present so I am just coasting and seeing what is out there that has been successful for others.

Hope we all have a healthy 2025.

'Tis a puzzle, @pinoaktree, as much for our neurologists as it is for us poor suffering PNers. I've been known to grab my Sherlock Holmes magnifying glass to read the ingredients on my vitamin supplement bottles, only to discover (as my neurologist said I would) that the trace B6 in my supplements is almost always pyridoxine hydrochloride, the sort that may build to toxic levels and mimic certain neuropathy symptoms.

I applaud your sentiment that we all have a healthy––and happy––2025!
