My podiatrist said it might/might not work and I agreed to be a guinea pig since how could extra B6, B12 and folic acid hurt? (soluble version - methylcobalamin, etc.)
Wish it had worked for me.  fyi, my insurance (cigna, then blue cross blue shield) paid for generic version.

Hi Brenda, sorry it did not work for you as well but you never know long term use of metanx might eventually give you bennefit and some pain relief, like you said, how can it hurt. It took several different medicines befor dad found the one that worked for him.
Good luck to you and let us know your progress.
