Default Benfotiamine
Has anyone tried Benfotiamine for their PN?

Quote:
Benfotiamine is a synthetic S-acyl derivative of thiamine that sold as a medication or dietary supplement to treat diabetic neuropathy.
After being diagnosed, I tried the B12 sublingual for about a year. Blood labs confirmed the B12 regimen in fact raised the level in my body. But, there was no noticeable improvement. Later, a P.A. told me the absolute cure for my numbness would be to take B6. However, Google-search revealed that B6 could actually make the PN worse.

I am willing to experiment further with supplements, just getting a little tired of throwing away $$ on ones that don't work.
