@jum13, You say that no supplements helped, but what and how did you choose? My neurologist recommended Vitamin B1, B12 and AlphaLipoic Acid some 7 years ago. I have been using them as well as a couple of other supplements like Lion's Mane, Magnesium, Omega3s and Acetyl-L-Carnitine. I don't know that I could have told you that first year if the supplements were making a difference, but now, years later, I am certain they have helped. Still, I agree that exercise is a major factor.

@mamamarch I tried all of the above. I do take B1 as I have been deficient also a multivitamin and magnesium. The gabbapentin actually does work for stopping the lightning bolt pains I would get in the evening. As far as being able to move and have agility, I have concluded, for me I have to keep moving. The annoyance factor will always be there 24/7 . Yes I usually need to take something for sleep. My biggest fear is going back to barely being able to walk and all that comes with that. Of course at 60 how long can I do 20k steps a day? What do you do?
