Deficient in B-12 and Vitamin D
Interesting discussion....
in 2005, I was dx'd with severe vit b-12 deficiency; about two years later, vitamin D deficiency was add; I have PN as the result of b-12 deficiency. I take injections once a week and have for six years. My b-12 levels now huddle around 900-1200, depending on when blood tests are done relative to my injections. I take Vitamin D supplents daily. But only 1000 i.u. a day - is that enough??
I've tried Neurotin 600 mg 3 x a day for a month and no help with PN burning. I've just begun Lyrica 50mg 3x a day...about one week in...still have burning, but not as severe.
Wondering if I should increase Vit D intake? Any thoughts?
