Morning Julbpat~
Well..thought I would post this new news..since I got so much interest.
First let me say that I admire your due diligence in all matters!
I slept on my back for the whole night..and I can report that I had a really good night's sleep...NO numbness or leg pains at all....so I'm a happy camper today!
I'll continue to take the Benfotiamine 150mg. in the am with a meal...and do the exercises as well....And..I guess I'll just have to get used to sleeping on my back from now on. Being relieved of even one health issue is so important to see that we all can make changes that bring us more comfort. Can't rely on doctors for all the answers.
I sincerely hope that this is informative and wish you all well...

I was taking 200 mg of Benfotiamine, but had to stop as it caused terrible, non-stop itching. You’re one of the lucky ones that helps.
