Metanx is unfortunately not available where I live (Sweden). I have used B-vitamins and folate as well, but not the activated forms. I don’t think they are available here, so I will have to bye them on-line. Do you think it is worthwhile to use the activated forms, considering the effect I got with cyanocobalamin?

Sorry about your pain, it must be terrible. Did you do anything to induce the reverse or was it spontaneously? Before I started the B12 treatment I had pain mainly during the evening and night, now I have pain all the time. I hope it will start to fade off and heal.
This is iherb.com shipping for international orders info:

Yes I would use the activated forms. All 3 are available from iherb. People who have complex issues, might be having trouble with activating these 3 B's in the body. People who come here usually have no problems with methylcobalamin.
Genetics are complex in this area, and DNA failures are showing up in more people, as the testing becomes more available and less expensive. P5P and methylfolate are also availabe from iherb. You probably don't need the high folate in Metanx, I'd say 800mcg of the active form is probably enough.
