Common Questions and Answers about Vitamins for nerve pain

Hi, Jen. I am a Certified Diabetes educator from Oregon. When blood sugars are elevated, too much sugar gets into the nerves and irritates them. In time, nerve damage occurs and neuropathies develop. It is important to achieve good control for a period of time to help this problem. Of course, when you have elevated blood sugars, the symptoms will be worse. I have had a patient with these pains all the way up to her buttocks.
The only medication that helps with nerve pain is nerve meds like Xanax Valium, Gabitril, ect I have permanent nerve damage and took Gabitril for a while then when my symptoms lessened started taking the Valium as needed. The Valium also helps with leg spasms. Complex B vitamins help to heal the nerves. I was on a medication called Mentanx which is just a complex b vitamin mix and it was working. Unfortunately I have herniated disc and had to stop due to the pain.
Very painful. After 2-3 days the pain died off a bit was still present for about 3 weeks. This pain was only when the shoulder was moved backward or when I applied pressure to a certain spot in the shoulder. This was accompanied by a tingling in the left thumb.
2) After this pain dissapeared the tingling remained only lightly for a week or so. I then got a tingle in my left big toe. Not as bad.
sometimes it feels as if my ribs are jumping over one another causing terrible pain,i don't know if that is the problem or muscel cramping
Well I went to see an oesteopath and he said that he thinks that I do have carpal tunnel...but the numbness and tingling was also happening in my feet (I forgot to mention that in my post). So, honestly, I really didn't think it was carpal. The thing is that I have had this muscle pain since February and I didn't start exercising until about a month ago.
I hate not knowing what is wrong with me. It's just a horrible muscle pain, and it makes me feel so tired too!
Is there any excercises that I can do to help a pinched nerve ?
I have had low back pain that goes down my right leg for 6 months. I have done Physical Therapy exercises, but that increases the pain. I have had an MRI, EEG (which showed a problem with the nerve), two steroid injections (neither worked), CT Myelogram (which showed inflammation of the nerve), another MRI (this time with contrast, which also showed nerve inflammation).
vitamins are not preferably for your baby. It's mostly for you because actually the baby takes the majority of the vitamins from you.
Neck strain, spondylotic changes in cervical vertebrae, bone disease or bad posture should be looked into. Nerve infections as in Lyme’s disease and nerve disorder such as Multiple sclerosis too should be investigated. I would suggest you get the blood levels of the following checked if they have not already been checked: potassium, calcium, sodium, magnesium, vitamin B complex, or vitamins B1, B3, or B6 and Vitamin D.
Have they tried you on Neurontin (Gabapentin)? That is usually prescribed for nerve pain. You may benefit from taking Alpha Lipoic Acid (ALA), which is an anti-oxidant supplement. Someone else told me about it, and I use it for the nerve pain I get from Fibromyalgia. She also mentioned an herbal supplement made by Naturway called Leg Veins that she uses. She also mentioned using Acetyl L Carnitine (kind of expensive) for break through nerve pain.
yes and a good therapeutic massage therapist would be able to release that trapped nerve and tight muscle.
I would try taking some supplements that support the adrenal glands, some of your symptoms suggest a sluggish adrenal gland function. The "B" vitamins are great for this problem as is Vitamin "C". Also, try taking the herb "Licorice" this is great for the adrenal glands, and a must is Bees Royal Jelly, you will get lots of energy from this plus, it is loaded with all the vitamins, minerals, amino acids and trace supplements known to man, it is outstanding.
