Diet and supplements

    • October 14, 2006 at 10:18 pm

      I am wondering what foods and supplements are best to help the nerves heal. I have heard the B vitamins and fish are good for your nerves. It has been 10 months since I first got GBS. I am healing very slowly. I can walk and drive a little better. I can now walk up the stairs without holding on to the railing. I am still very stiff after sleeping all night or sitting for very long. I have stopped taking neurontin completely. I have a lot of weird sensations but they are not very painfull. I hate taking any drugs.

      My GP Doctor advised me to take Vitamin B12 500mg, let it melt under the tongue, Vitamin B Complex and Folic acid. He feels it will help nerve pain. Sure worth a try for me to get back to walking again and getting rid of my two AFO’s. Hope this helps~~ Regina
