CoQ10 & small nerve neuropathy
Today I finally met a Doctor who was compassionate and caring! Update on me .. 2 years ago I was diagnoised with "Idiopathic" small fiber neuropathy by punch biopsy.My new Neurologist spent more then over an hour with me and was refreshingly honest. Because I am otherwise very healthy ,He will not accept my neuropathy as Idiopathic at this time. He wants to do more tests and said he will consult with a Neuromuscular Doctor at this Medical Ctr and will do some research this weekend. (wow) Ok Fast forward.. He recommends I take CoQ10 said to make sure I get the Ubiquinone form for Mitochondrial trtment. I have searched the internet and found this form CoQ10 very expensive. My question is does any one take CoQ10 for small nerve neuropathy, and what is the difference between Ubiquinone and Ubiquinol? The Doctor said to take 1000 mgs twice a day with a tsp of Olive Oil. I do not know anything about Coq10, but I read many PNers on here take it. This dosage seems like alot. Does anyone take Coq10 and how much do you take and does it help? I will wait for a response before I order it..Thank you in advance!
