[QUOTE="Tim55, post: 914972, member: 186079"] Hi - quick update from sunny Spain. Currently taking 500mg ALA 500mg Benfotiamine 2mg (2000 mcg )methyl cobolamine And one multi vitamin daily, together with 4x 500mg metformin. Aim was to help with neuropathy in fingers and toes.. Fingers are much improved, toes not so much. I mean that I now have feeling in my feet and toes and I think a slightly improved motor control of my toes (I can hook them round the edge of the pool now, which I couldn't do last year)but the numbness has been replaced by pain. ...... As a side effect I have noticed my BG levels have had a step change from the mid to high 5s to the high 4s and low 5s.. The joint pain in my knee however is getting worse. This could be due to holiday footwear and an unfortunate blister on my ankle though so it's on with the program for now. [/QUOTE]
