to this forum. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known about it. I just wanted to say hi, and report that my PN has been virtually gone for over a year and half. Large doses of methylcobalamin (5 mg AM, 5 mg PM) for 3½ months seems to have done the trick (thanks to rose). I still have a little bit of a "fuzzy" souvenir at times around the toes, but no pain. Nerves seem to have been mostly repaired. All other concomitant issues, including anxiety and depression have long disappeared. While diagnosed as idiopathic PN in February 2005, I am fairly certain that mine was caused by a largely vegan diet, and long periods of no B12 supplementation.

BTW, I have reduced the dose of methylcobalamin, but I'm still taking a total of at least 2 mg daily. I plan to continue taking it regularly from now on.

Best wishes for continuing improvement to all.
