Catastrophic lower back injury 1992 8week hospitalization. Paralyzed knees down 50 %  resulting in foot and heel pain.  

Three and a half years ago I was totally incapacitated suffering at home for three months. Ran across an article implicating niacin.  My doc prescribed niacin as I left the hospital in 1992. Vitamins are benign right??????    I Quit taking them and experienced relief in  24 hours.  I have been pain free for almost 4 years.   Further experimentation has lead to eliminating all B vitamins.  The threshold is low.  No multivitamin no fortified foods.  Watch labels bread cereal orange juice.  I can turn the pain back on easily by indulging in the above. If you try this remember the threshold could be very low.  Twenty two years as many doc's and no one suggested this.  Worked for me hope I help someone.

    Very sorry to read of your accident. Very Interesting observation on supplements and  Happy your doing well. I have the opposite problem. Low in B I get tingling in my toes . after blood tests showed I was low in B supplements. After a few months after taking b vit the tingling has gone.

    just how different we all are in reactions. 

    Wishing you continued success .
