I have a couple of thoughts. Has your doc tested you for a B12 deficiency? If so do you have copies of any of the results. Just asking becasue it sounds like some of your symptoms are neuropathy related and a b12 deficiency could be connected. Also B12 deficiency in older people I believe has shown up in thinking and cognitive deficiencies. And some people cannot absorb b12 properly and todays docs are not up on the latest levels and where they really sould be. For example in the rest of the world anything under 500 is considered deficient while its considered normal here.

Even if you do not have a B12 test you might want to go out and get some methyl b12 and give it a try to see if it makes any difference in your symptoms.

You might also want to post in the PN forum and describe some of your symptoms there and someone might be able to give more insight. Here is the link.
