hi my name is jon, i'm 57 years old.. starting about a month ago i began having burning skin sensations all over my body then in particular my hands and feet... not terribly painful but annoying and sometimes kept me awake. went to neurologist last week and after doing some testing said i had sensory neuropathy...he starting me out on .25 elavil to be taken at bedtime...and ran a bunch of blood tests....waiting for results......i've been taking prilosec daily for a few years and have read here that it can cause a vitamin b-12 deficency.. i was wondering if it should start taking b-12 before i get my test results which may take a week or two... i would imagine the blood tests he ordered would look for vitamin deficiencies....any recomendations????
thank you,
jon
