Lightbulb Melody...

For you specifically?

You are a diabetic and using some drugs that are depleters.
I have other recommendations for you in addition to the thiamine.

magnesium
zinc

based on your Zestoretic use.
Diabetics lose magnesium thru the urine
And Lisinopril depletes zinc
and the HCTZ portion of the Zestoretic depletes thiamine and magnesium, and potassium (the potassium you can get from wise food choices).

GNC is the most expensive place for vitamins. Isn't there another you can try?

Iherb has good prices online ..
This zinc for example:
http://www.iherb.com/ProductDetails....&pid=1361&at=0
240 days supply for $10. less than 5 cents a day

this magnesium:
http://www.iherb.com/ProductDetails....=1&pid=15&at=0
120 for $8.83 8 cents a day

And this thiamine:
http://www.iherb.com/ProductDetails....1&pid=403&at=0
100/$2.78


I don't think you'll find this quality ..these are the best 3 to choose, at these prices at GNC. But do check it out.
