I take a number of supplements that you have recommended on this forum which I will list for you along with my other medications. If you see any that I should add to my regime(or delete) I would really appreciate your recommendation. My conditions are EM, PN and Raynauds. I feel the EM is the worst and most difficult to live with (at least for me) although part of that may be PN pain too.
My dermatologist (last week) prescribed Hydroxyzine when I told him how much the Claritin had helped so we will see. I took my first one last night. I really want to taper off the Gab and Nortrip.
I am working with a pain doctor but find as a lot of others that unless something was his idea he tends to not take me seriously. I am grateful for his diagnosis (because all other doctors I went to had no idea what I had) but find the long wait times very frustrating. I see him every six or eight weeks and that seems a very long time to try something, have it not work and do nothing until my next visit.

Last blood test my B12 was 957 so I don’t take any of that. This may have been high because I had been taking sublingual 5000mg. Not taking at this time.
Again, I can't thank you enough for all your help.

not mrsd, but, if you had not stopped the B12 at least a week before the test it would not be accurate...and taking nexium, I would not be in a hurry to discontinue the B12.
