LizaJane:

I took Niacin about 5 years ago and had the same reaction. I also turned red all over. I got my daughter to take it and she had the same thing happen. It was not pleasant. I thought it felt more like burning... All over burning of the skin...

Then my husband tried it, with no effect on him whatsoever.

I would suspect that sensory nerve involvement in PN, which is present in both my daughter and I, plays a part in this burning reaction, but am not sure.

I will be watching your posting to see if this diminishes, as I have been afraid to continue it. Doctors I described this to, never seemed to have heard of this before.

God luck,
Cathie
