Twitching spasms all over neuropathy/meds

Talk to you doctor about trying vitamin B12 injections, not B12 vitamin pills. Vitamin B12 helps heal muscles and nerves, it's not a cure but one injection every week or two has given me enough relief to reduce my gabapentin to almost zero. An excess of vitamin B12 has no negative effects on your body, it can only help. I read an article that the Mayo Clinic is currently doing research on the impact B12 has on neuropathy, don't know if that article is correct, you could contact the Mayo Clinic to learn more. Please let me know if it helps, if it does we can pass it along to help other people.

Thanks for the pointer - I did have a expensive but helpful vitamin cocktail of B vitamins, ALA, Magnesium which I felt was helpful, as things have been ultra bad with the foot neuropathy before now. I still take quite a high dose of the bioavailable version of B12, magnesium, Vit D & B9, I'm not sure if that's the same as the injected b12 version? I also aware I overdid the Vitamin B6 and now cannot take B6 AT ALL - as the excess toxicity symptoms are..... neuropathy , would you believe it. That took some time of learning before I stopped and pulled back from taking so many. Plus, costs. BUT I do believe a cocktail exists of supplement that DO help neuropathy, though clearly I don't have it - lol 😂.
