No it really didn’t! That being said I started slow and worked my way up to 3000mg/day. I have been able to back that down to 1800/day and do pretty well with that dose. I want to be sure and tell you that I do have some loss of balance from 10 years ago. I am now 59 and my neurologist thought I was doing pretty well considering how long I have had SFN. I do balance exercises daily to try to maintain what I have and I find that the more exercise I can get the better I feel in general and pain wise. I hope this helps!

I do a lot of balance work myself since I have had two falls and two broken shoulders - however the falls were not related to neuropathy or balance. I am 75 years old, exercise at the gym and work to keep my weight down without harming myself nutrition wise. I walk every day as well. However all this becomes increasingly more difficult since my feet hurt a lot. I have been prediabetic for years and I read being prediabetic for so long can be the cause of it. I never eat dessert or any other sweets so trying to figure out some way to lower my sugar. Thank you for your help so far.
