Have you thought of trying the methylcobalmin transdermal
cream. We give
this method to our grandsons as I couldnt come at the needles
for them.
Our compound chemist said he can make the B12 transdermal
stronger to bring
it up closer to the range of the needles. There is also the
SUB-LINGUAL
drops that you put under your tongue and drop really really
slowly. You can
buy the drops in Methylcobalin from VRP in USA.
Coastal Compounding in USA do the transdermals but you can
probably get your
compound chemist locally to do that for you. If your in USA you
will
probably need a script.
Is your peripheral
neuropathy diabetic related????
There is little research dealing with non-conventional treatment
of
peripheral neuropathy, other than in diabetic related cases.
Several
nutrients and herbals have been shown to help diabetic
neuropathy including
vitamins B6, B12, C, and E. Inositol, magnesium, zinc, quercetin,
gingko
biloba, and gamma linoleic acid have shown promise as well.
Diabetic cases
require specific nutritional considerations (see our Diabetes
Wellness
Center) which must be closely followed for overall long term
positive
effects.
Peripheral neuropathies, other than diabetic, have responded to
some
nutrients such as vitamins B3, niacinamide, folic acid,
potassium,
vinpocetine and coenzyme Q10. Hypericum perforatum, a
homeopathic form of
St. John?s wort, has shown promise, as well as other herbs like
willow bark,
wintergreen, mustard, ginger and Chinese angelica.
Stinging nettle, sciatica cress (peppergrass), red pepper
(capsicum) and
lavender have been used in various topical preparations with
some success.
I know that Ginger is used on a transdermal cream for the feet
as well,
probably could use it on your hands as well.
Instead of using the coenzyme Q10 we use IDEBENONE which
we have used for
two years now. It is supposed to be better than the cQ10.
If it is a Virus caused Peripheral neuropathy then maybe the
* OLIVE LEAF EXTRACT
* VIRGIN COCONUT OIL
* GRAPEFRUIT SEED EXTRACT
would be of help also.
take care
