Lightbulb to get nerves to grow back

they must have nutrients provided to do so.

For chemo induced nerve damage the premier one is l-carnitine.

http://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/art...medid=16406309
The AIDS community has been using l-carnitine for at least a decade now
to help prevent drug induced neuropathies.
Type l-carnitine chemo induced neuropathy into PubMed and Google, for more.

Other nutrients needed for the repair of myelin nerve sheath are
EFAs, (flax oil and fish oil)
Vit B12 (we use oral methylcobalamin here from iherb.com)
folic acid
Vitamin B6

There is an RX with all the activated B's in it called Metanx that you can
get from the doctor.

I don't know if this is available in UK. The OTC versions should be.
