John, thanks for helping mentor this group. Just joined. Have had PN in my feet for about 10 years, getting progressively worse. Trying to get off/reduce very high dosage of gabapentin of 3,000 mg/day. Would like to learn more of your supplemental vitamins etc especially omega 3/6 ratios. Thanks, Terry

Hi Terry @terrydclaar, I posted my story and how I found the supplements I take along with some caveats earlier on Connect here: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/anyone-here-dealing-with-peripheral-neuropathy/?pg=42#comment-65985. All of the supplements I take I order through the links on the closed Facebook groups website - http://solutions2pnpd.com/products/. The Facebook group link is http://www.facebook.com/groups/spnpd. For omega 3/6 oils it's both plant and fish. I take 4 tsp of Carlson LIQUID Fish Oil (800 EPA/500 DHA) - 2 tsps in the morning & evening. The plant based is 1-1/2 oz daily in the morning of Manitoba Harvest Organic Hemp Seed Oil (2000 mg Omega-3, 8000 mg Omega-6).
If you are interested in trying the supplements I would recomment joining the closed Facebook group. The have a lot of files on the different supplements and you can search the group for topics on questions you may have.
Hope this helps! John
