MrsD - you aren't kidding!! Amazon's prices are amazing! Thanks for saving me a good portion of my life savings :-) I did pay a ridiculous $20.00 to get them all shipped over night but I can't wait a day longer to try to heal myself.

I know that you recommended just doing the Benfotamine & CoQ-10 for a month to see if there is improvement before trying the ALA & R-Lipoic but I can't wait. I'm going to essentially bomb my body with nutrients & if I get any improvement (hope! pray!) then I will slowly wean things out. I know it's the more expensive route but my symptoms are WORSENING! Every single day something hurts more or the pain goes to a new part of my body. And I am on a wait list thru October to get into the Neuropathy Department at OSU. I'm terrified of being in a wheel chair or something by then :-(

So other than thanking you for the guidance - I wonder if you might pleae take a second to tell me what dosage of my new supplements I should be taking? Thank you in advance. SO MUCH!!!

I will highlight your quote in red for my comments... easier to understand that way...

I used to use iherb.com for many years. At one time they were the only place with the more unusual supplements like methylcobalamin, etc. But now Amazon has them all that I use and the free shipping is lower at $25. We often shop for other things at Amazon..cat toys, a music CD every once in a while, and hard to find tools/kitchen things. I even found some seeds on Amazon once! Our young cat loves the plastic springs that come 10 in a pack. She carries them around the house and plays for long periods of time with them! Sometimes yowling her catch with glee!


Give the supplements a good six months. If you see NOTHING in the way of improvements, that would point to a hereditary PN. But most of our members do see something change. Keeping a journal may help, if you're up to that. Drink enough water, to keep hydrated, which is always important when taking supplements.
