For Dietary Supplementation "I’m a 77 yr old who is diabetic and had vascular surgeries in 1992 and again in 2020. I developed lower leg and foot neuropathy in early 2023. I began taking Metanx on the advice of my neurologist about 3 months ago; two capsules a day at $165 a month with my insurance. I felt some improvement after a couple of months as the numbness had subsided by maybe 35%, so I’m continuing with it. Last week sometime, I developed some severe lower hip, right knee, and lower leg pain and thought maybe my sciatic might be acting up. I went to my chiropractor for three days straight and no relief. I was lying in bed this morning after waking up at 3 a.m. and unable to go back to sleep due to the severe leg pain; maybe it’s an adverse reaction to Metanx. I came to this site and read the reviews and found nothing resembling my experience with Metanx and nothing close to the symptoms I’m experiencing now. So, so far, Metanx gets a 10 for me unless I find out differently."

"My dad was having severe pain in his left leg for years, and his endocrinologist suggested he take Metanx and try it for at least a month because it takes time to work. He had no side effects, and it worked. He had gone to a neurologist who was going to put him on a pain pump, but he decided to try the Metanx first. He was grateful for the doctor that suggested it. He has been on it since it came out. It has gotten really expensive, but it is well worth it."
