Hi, have you started taking Maximum strength Neuropathy support formula? If you want to try it, it does not appear to me to have anything harmful in it. It will either help you or not. After the first bottle, if you have not gotten any benefit, just move on. It has a few of the things my wife takes for her neuropathy, i.e. lipoic acid, benfotiamine, acetyl l carnitine, b12, turmeric and others. Of these, she has noticeable benefits from her turmeric (curcumin) supplement more than some of the others, but some people swear by lipoic acid (we take r lipoic acid), b12, it's kind of all over the map depending on the person, just like everything involving neuropathy. It also contains some herbs such as feverfew, skullcap, and others, which might be good, I do not know. The question I would have would be to the quality and source of each different component, which is why we take things individually after researching them. Best, Hank

Hello All,
I’m just responding to this group. I have watched the posts and learning a lot from them. One post just recently really caught my attention and I cannot seem to locate it for referral. The post was in regards to a packaged supplements of alpha lapoic acid that included multiple variations of pills. It explained the difference for r ala and s alpha lapoic acid to treat progressive diabetic autoimmune neuropathy pain starting with the feet.
I know this post will probably make any sense but if the person who listed it and recalls their posting could you please let me know the name of the manufacturer?

Hello Everyone, whenever I want to introduce a new supp to my arsenal, I call the pharmacist (they know more about drugs than doctors per my pharmacology continuing medical education). They often tell me that the supp has contraindications with one of my meds. Often the supp can either diminish or augment the therapeutic dose of one or more of my meds which could be dangerous. So please make sure you do the same, even if you are only taking one medication! I give them the info on the bottle they need and they can always find that supp, at least so far over the years. It can be potentially serious. Be safe, stay well and many blessings, Sunnyflower 😊

@jestfactsmon, I think your last sentence is so important. I only wish I'd thought to research "the only new med prescribed" when my earlier nausea, appetite and wt loss began. It didn't dawn on my doc either that the "new med" could be the culprit.
After a horrid bout of Diverticulitis, I kept a diary of foods slowly re-introduced into my diet. I'd add one raw or cooked veggie to the diet each week so when I had a flare up, it was easy to recognize brussel sprouts as the culprit. Can eat them now again but I've become a real believer, like you, in trying one new thing at a time.
