I don't know of any reason to wait. My neurologist had no objections. I've read (but cannot find the article; perhaps mrsD knows which one) that the sooner RLA is started, the more efficacious it is. The B5 helps considerably too, even though I am not diabetic. I haven't needed/taken anything further (like gabapentin) since beginning RLA & B5.
