Size of meals also affects blood sugar levels, so keeping meals smaller, and having good snacks in between will give you better numbers as well.

These treatment protocols change very rapidly today, many doctors may hold on to older ranges and ideas, so people receive very different responses from doctors today.

I am NOT seeing test results for the two most important vitamins involved with PN pain:

B12
Vit D

Did you have them done?
9 months ago my B-12 was 379 , Vit D 34 , copper 88. I'm being retested . for vit B-6, B-12, copper,and these are new > RPR, hemoglogin, immuno fixation, Serum Protein Electrophoresis, and another that shows how the blood clots at differant temperatures. I should know the results in a few weeks. In the past yr they done at least 30 blood test, too many to count.Also they found a problem with my blood cells when the did a nerve biopsy and i have issues with my back to boot.

Your B12 is low.

B12 is something you should try asap.

Default This, actually--
--is a very good set of blood test results a lot of us wish we had.

The most important thing is that your immunolgobulin profile came back normal--they did the more sensitive immunofixation electrophoresis and identified no monoclonal or m-proteins which might point to various blood diseases and cancers. And you quantitative immunoglobulin levels are quite normal.

Wish I had those hemoglobin A1c numbers. (I'm due for another test myself in three weeks.)

That's a nice jump in B-12 levels compared to the last series of tests, but with neurological symptoms you may want to get in up even higher--how much B12 are you currently taking, and in what form?
