Do you know how much was given?
Do you know the details of the type of thiamine?
Thanks, and congrats for fighting back and getting a victory!

1 - It's
not IV injection but it's Intramuscular injection.
2 - It's not a single treatment. Initially, after a neurological visit, the doctor decides, the proper amount, relatively to your own weight, and how long you have had the disease. (for example, for me, my weight is 80 Kilos, and the Hoehn Yahr scale rate is 2.5) I need a 100mg/1ml Thiamine hydrochloride IM injection twice a week.
3 - In Italy the commercial name is Benerva.
Thank you for your support, anyway we must remember this isn't the cure, but it helps all of us a lot, and hopefully it should halt the disease.
However the doc said that whoever tries this therapy surely responds (in different ways).
