Hello all. Just found this forum. so here it goes. I started having skin sesitivity about 1 month ago. always wanted to scratch and rub the area that tingled. then one sunday my hands and feet tops only felt like they had been dipped in icy hot. went to dr the next day. they did blood work. b-12 was 249 so he said to start b-12 1000 a day. so I did. but was not happy with just that. so two day later I was in to see a neurologist who wants to do a nerve test on me in a week. later on that week I called to see if Icould get something for the burning it was getting to me. she put me on neurotin 200 three times a day. it seems to keep things under control most of the time. but I have notice my arms tingling and feeling heavy. I feel tired and weak sometimes. I have two friends on this drug and they love it. Me not so much. I am a mom of three small kids 5, 4, and 1 and I am scarred and worried. is this livable. will it go away ever. any words of wisdom would be great. any advice also.
thanks
jolina
