Suffering From Neuropathy Symptoms, Taking Medicine For Vitamin Deficiency. When Will I Become Normal?

Hi Doctor,
How many months are required to become normal ( once you start taking medicines) to get rid of vitamine deficiencey ? Especially B12, B6 etc ?
I have just started suffering from aweful periferal neuropathy symptoms and I suspect its cause of vitamine deficiency. And how quickly can I get relief frm this neuropathy problem ? IT just started a week ago, but its unbearable. Your views would be greatly appriciated. Thanks.

Dear sir/madam

If neuropathy is caused due to diabetes and it is of long term, then most probably it will be not reversible.

If you dont have diabetes and it is exactly happening due to vitamin deficiency the it will become normal.

consult your neurologist and do one nerve conduction studies once..
You will reveal lot of things

thanks.
