I am currently on 1000mg Gabapetin, 5mg of Lexapro, and 40mg Zegerid. I also take 2000IU of Vitamin D and 300mg ALA twice a day.

I have had several blood tests and Vitamin test.

Ill give you the latest result.

My Vitamin B12 644 Range 211-911
Folate Serum 9.6 Range >5.4
MAgnesium 2.0 Range 1.5-2.5
Iron Serum 130 Range 50-212
Vitamin B1 Plasma 6 Range 8-30
ITs low. I did fast night before so not sure if that threw anything off. They make a disclaimer on this test saying the total thiamine measured is reported however the biologically active form of the vitamin, thiamine diphosphate (TDP) is best measured in whole blood and is not found in measureable concentration of plasma. Plasma reflects recent intake rather then body stores.
Vitamin B2 9 Range 5-50
Vitamin B6 35 Range 20-125
Vitamin D 24 Range 30-100
Zinc Serum/Plasm 84 Range 80-120
Hematology all normal
Auto Diff all normal
Glucose 75 Range 70-118
BUN 23 Range 8-26
Creatinine 1.1 Range .6-1.3
Bun/Creatine Ratio 21 Range 8-36
Sodium 141 Range 134-149
Potassium 4.3 Range 3.6-5.5
Cholride 103 Range 94-112
Carbon Dioxide 26 Range 21-32
Calcium 8.7 Range 8-10.4
Total Protein 7.7 Range 6.3-8.1
Albumin 4.2 Range 3.5-5.2
globulin 3.6 Range 2.0-4.8

Urobilinogen .2 Range 0-2.0
Nitrite Neagative

So my Vitamin B1 is slighly low but I am not sure how accurate plasma measured is. My vitamin D is low but not grossly low. I am taking Vitamin D 2000iu for last 2 months but Dr. Has written a script to take 50,000 IU for 6 weeks. My Bilirubin is high but its been high my whole life my brother has the same ever since I was a child.

I have a bunch of other blood work done by the Rheumatologist to rule out lyme dieases, Lupus, and a bunch of other autoimmune diseases. I am in good health otherwise and eat a low fat low acid diet. I am normal body weight. Have normal blood pressure.

This burning has consumed my life. I talked to 3 different Neurologist. One tells me get the epidural in my t spine, another tells me there’s nothing wrong with you because I don’t have numbness, pins and needsle or symptoms anywhere else on my body except upper back, sholders, and bottom of neck, and can’t explain my symptoms, and another says take more drugs Back surgeon say to get an epidural in my C6 cervical area.

Maybe I have a visceral hypersensitivity in my esophagus and lexparo helped but why the burning in my back? And having that herniation in my Tspine leaves me with another question mark as most of my tests are all normal. Why is my back so damn sensitive? I also went to a dermatologist said my skin is fine, and game me a steroid cream to try for a week which did nothing.
I am trying to make sense of all this for so long now. I just cant get an answer that makes sense.

Please help me rule out neurological cause or pursue an area that makes sense.
