@ray666 - You did touch on something about University Hospitals and in the time I've spent dealing with PN and all the effects, I've found them to be on the top of my list. There is just something about the way they do things that have impressed me. On the RBC....funny timing, I just had labs done 2 weeks ago and did meet with my primary today. I'm a little below what the lab considers normal range. The B-12 for me was in the 120 range in around 2011 and the doc told me to take 1000 mg of B-12 daily which now has me in the 300 range and I've been there for about 12 years. On the B-6....I'm taking 50 mg every other day, approved by my primary and neuro doc and I also take B-1, low dose. Doing any good? Who the heck knows!

NJ Ed | @njed –– I, too, was always impressed with the care I received at the University of Colorado Health Sciences Center. I was automatically patched in with UCHSC because I was employed by UC Boulder then. When I retired in 2011, I had no choice but to get new insurance. (I could have stuck with UCHC, carrying the needed insurance on my own would have sent me to the poor house.) I'm now with AARP United Healthcare, and most of my doctors huddle at one of the region's non-university hospitals. Changing subjects: I've not heard back from "my Dave," and it's now past closing time at my neurologist's office––so I'll be phoning again tomorrow. I sent a note to my PCP asking if she could find any mention of my B6 level on a report from a recent lab test. I've got copies, but to my layman's eyes, they're nothing but a maze of abbreviations. I could make out my B12 level: 941, back in Oct. '22. I wonder if my B6 level appears anywhere or has ever been checked. My PCP is good about getting back to me. Her workday is over now, too, but I'm pretty sure I'll hear something tomorrow. ––Ray
