I, too, have been thinking so much about the possible thiamine connection - I've just been to busy lately to do any online digging on the subject. So I really appreciate that you've done it! It's all so interesting - especially the gut/absorption connection, and all the side effects of being deficient.

I've ordered a bottle of thiamine, I'm taking 250mg 2x per day. I'm not sure if this will be absorbed, but I'm giving it the experimental try!

Thank you!
I've been taking benfotiamine 250mg once per day for 2 days now and so far I've noticed that my restless leg seems to have disappeared. It's still too early to tell but so far so good. Thiamine didn't do anything for me for a week or so. Benfotiamine is fat soluable so it gets into cells and is absorbed much more than Thiamine.
