I wonder why my neurologist didn't recommend l- carnitine along with the alpha lipoic acid. I think I will try it. I'm also going to increase my amount of 300 mg. of alpha l. acid to 600 mg. I don't remember the amount he recommended. He was a fellow at the teaching hopsital I go to and the current fellow hasn't recommended anything. Along with the alpha lipoic acid he recommended Vitamins C, E, B complex, and a multiple vitamin. I was diagnosed when I was 59 and am now 60.

Thanks for your information.
