Now,the improvement could also be attributed to the length of time involved in the process of healing nerve damage, ( 2mm per week). Prednisone, used in this fashion is a very powerful anti-inflammatory. Healing is expedited when inflammation is reduced. Slow, steady improvement is taking place. I have done much research into the mitochondria and the effects of a polysaccharide booster such as D-Ribose, and will continue it's use but adding Alpha Lipoic Acid to the mix. The combination hopefully will speed up the healing in my feet. I hope this has been helpful.
