If you have no other nerve symptoms anywhere else, I would not think you have B12 deficiency.

If you decide to take B12 which is rather benign, you could start at 1000mcg/daily on an empty stomach.

I'd add in magnesium to your supplements and fish oil. Both work with B12 and B6 to repair myelin.

This is my magnesium thread:

Avoid magnesium OXIDE...it does not work.

Healing peripheral nerve damage takes some time. But it does happen.
