Does Vitamin B-12 help with neuropathy?

I took very high doses of a particular formulation of B vitamin called Methyl B (from Jarrow) for almost two years, starting in 2012-2013. There had been some studies showing nerve regeneration from treatment with this B Vitamin.

I understood this 'treatment' without medical supervision, on my own, after discussion with others who had heard of possible positive results.

I had absolutely no improvement, and in fact continued to deteriorate from atrophy of my lower legs and general weakness and instability.

I did not have a deficiency of Vitamin B in blood tests, prior to this experiment. In fact, I never had deficiency in any vitamin.

So this is what I found in my own experience with Vitamin B therapy.

I too worry about muscle atrophy and loss. I've picked up a little more on the exercise to help and I'm still working on improving my eating habits. I eat fairly healthy but I do have my days. Lots of info out there on helping with the muscle atrophy but I have to believe it boils down to enough protein and regular exercise of some sort.
