Smile Hello From Oregon
Hi , I am a 46 year old female who has Nueropathy. It is believed to be caused from a Vitamine B6 defeciency. We are trying to get a balance of this Vitamine, but my body seems to be very sensitive. I have nueropathy from my knees down and in my hands. I suffer severe pain and have yet to find a drug that helps enough to make the side effects worth while.

Any body else suffer from Nueropathy for the same reasons?

Default It's certainly one of the causes of neuropathy--
as is an overage of B6:

Come on over to the peripheral neuropthy forum:

http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/forumdisplay.php?f=20

and talk to us; B6 deficiency, unfortunately, is not something that happens in isolation very often--there may be genetic or metabolic disorders you should be investigating.

Hi Julie from Oregon! I grew up in Oregon but have moved to Idaho. I get over that way a lot now because I am in a clinical trial at Providence (really it's at St. Vincent's in Cedar Hills but they think they are Providence!).

Exclamation
Thanks for the welcome. It is very lonely here in Oregon. I don't know one person who has Neuropathy or that has heard of it before. Can you believe it??? What can we do to raise awareness of the deblitating desease?
