It might just fix everything, and you won't need much else.

Adding in RX drugs and a list of supplements may then cloud the issue. It is best to add in one thing at time, and wait a month or so to see if it works. RX drugs do not heal, they only block perception of symptoms.
The other supplements (including the B12) can lead to real healing.

Are you saying I should quit taking the gabapentin and just try the B12 by itself? Or just that I should hold off on switching to Cymbalta or another painkiller? (I've been taking B12 for 5 days now, but I will ask my doc if I can increase from 1000mcg to 5000mcg.)

Thanks!
