It's been a long time since I've been here and just like in the past, I have such a hard time figuring out how to find Mrs. D's supplement list (said with complete embarassment!). I clicked on the sticky, but ??? Forgive me!

I'm specifically interested learning how much ALA is TOO much? Per my doc I can take up to 1200 mg's a day but I've been taking double. And, is Rlipoic truly better? Lastly on dosages-how much NAC is too much? Thank you!

I'm wondering (and frustrated by) why sometimes my combination of supplements seem to "shut off" the searing pain in my legs, while other times, it does nothing at all? I was just starting to relax a litte after seeing some improvement in my progressive body burning, only to be up all night with worsening pain again? I've been on the supps for about 2 months consistantly. The only thing I stopped was the B12 injections because I was getting severe acne. After doing some reading I learned the sublingual were just as effective so I ditched the needles and stayed on my jarrow 5000mcg (25,000mcg). However, I dropped the injections weeks ago so I'm not sure that has any tie into why I'm exploding with pain.


I didn't eat or drink aything I don't typically eat or drink. No extra stress.

I'm on 3600 mg's of neurontin too and just starting to see hope of decreasing it for the first time in 4.5 years.

Any info would be greatly appreciated! Thank you
