I've tried TENS, but it only works while the unit is on - no residual effect for me.

Here're some daily amounts that should be ok unless your mom exhibits some sensitivity to one or more of them:

B12 (Methylcobalamin) - 1000 mcg (1 mg) since her level is "normal"
RLA (stabilized R-Lipoic Acid) - 100 mg (she could try doubling this, but it may agitate some folks)
ALC (Acetyl L Carnitine) - 500 mg
B5 (Pantothenic Acid) - 100-250 mg

All taken on an empty stomach. The last 3 work in conjunction.
These last 3 worked really well for me (YMMV).

HTH,

Doc
