Thanks mrsD. When stricken with neuropathy, I was taking...
Atenolol (Took for 11 years)
Hydrochorothiazide (Took for 9 years)
Benicar (Took for 5 years)
Verapamil (Took for 11 years)
Hydralazine (Took for 5 months)
I know that my potassium level has always tested normal, and my B12 was normal. I am not sure about the B6, I don't think I was tested for that. I have to request a copy of my blood work, but I was told everything was normal. I never really had any problems from the drugs that I have taken long term. Thanks again....

Either PM me with your medications or post here, and I will
look them up.
It could be you are just having low levels of some things due
to your drugs.
