Can small fiber nerves regenerate?

Welcome @kitcatsheart, Sorry to hear that you are still struggling. When I first started reading about vitamin B supplements I became aware of the B6 toxicity that can cause neuropathy so I stayed away from anything with B6 in it including supplements and especially energy drinks. I shared what I believe has helped tame down my neuropathy in another discussion here - https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/957496/. I still have the numbness and tingling but it hasn't gotten any worse since I started taking the supplements. The Foundation for Peripheral Neuropathy also has a list of supplements shown to help with neuropathy symptoms - https://www.foundationforpn.org/vitamins-and-supplements-for-nerve-health/. Have you discussed the supplements with your doctor or neurologist?

@johnbishop did your numbness have any improvement? Im desperate for the recent change in mine to improve. My doctors aren't interested in talking about supplements. They just want to throw gabapentin at me even though I don't really struggle with pain.
