Default Metanx

I went to another neurologist today hoping for a new insight for my PN.

I was surprised that he prescribed me with a supplement called Metanx. I never heard of it so I was excited. After getting it from the local pharmacy, I immediately checked it online what's it for -- it's for the treatment of diabetic neuropathy. He said that he never prescribed it until more and more studies have come out for the past 10 years about the efficacy of the supplement. I'm not sure if I heard my new neurologist said about FDA approved but a prescription is needed to buy so I assume its FDA approved. He said about some patients who had success in using the supplement.

Although it says on the literature online that it should not be taken with antibiotic. But there was no mention of specific antibiotics. The doctor knew my antibiotics, so I guess it's safe to take it.

I will start tonight taking it...I hope it'll help me some.
