I would expect this to be very expensive. Was it? If not, then I would wonder if it contains what it says it does! You can send me a PM and tell me if you don't want to post here. I am guessing about $60/month?
It also should be taken on an empty stomach, because of the B12 content. Do the directions say that? If not, that omission is important. So follow the empty stomach recommendation I give for best absorption of the B12.
The D is low, but in a mixture, I wouldn't expect it to be higher.
He may need much more than these provide. But you will have to have testing to show that.

Yes, you are very close - it was $63 for a one month supply but like i said i am willing to try anything at this point and if it works, will be much less than the home care that i would need to get for him. As an aside, the price can go as low as $43 but you need to commit to a long term supply...
And yes, it does say that it should be taken on an empty stomach once in the am and once in the pm. You stated that you don't think the "ratio" supplements are useful - it that because they don't contain enough of a certain vitamin? Also, do you think it would be helpful to supplement with the Acetyl L Carnitine? Like I said, I am totally new to all of this and it is absolutely killing me to see my Dad in this condition. I suppose we are lucky that he does not have any pain like many of the posters on this board - his is purely extreme numbness and no balance which has left him pretty much immobile.
Thank you so much for all of your feedback, it is very much appreciated!
