Hi Tina, back, and for your encouraging and informative report!

What kind of doctor does food sensitivity testing?

Many of us here are taking B12 (methylcobalamin) sublingual, 1mg - 5 mg/day (empty stomach at least an hour before ingesting any food). Cheaper and easier than injections (not to mention severe trypanophobia ). I would think the other supplements you mention would be easier orally as well; is there some specific reason you're doing injections?

A lot of us are also taking Stabilized R-Lipoic Acid (100 mg. once/day) w/ Acetyl L-Carnitine (500 mg. 2/day) and/or B5 (pantothenic acid 500 mg. 2/day) to alleviate burning pain of PN. An additional effect RLA has is helping the body utilize glucose, improving blood sugar control and raising energy levels.

HTH,

Doc
