Crikey, i guess a misdiagnoses like this could be fatal.

many thanks

Hi Brian:

I'm a formerly fat Type 2 diabetic who was diagnosed with Diabetic Neuropathy last year. I immediately began taking Methyl B-12. Best thing I ever did.

Try and ask your friend if he can begin taking this. I just might help him. It doesn't work for every one, but in MY case, it was a life-saver.

All the best
