Guest guest Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 I apologise for pressing the send button rather early. I also have trigeminal neuralgia. What do you recommend?

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2009 Report Share Posted June 22, 2009 Hi, May I ask at what level would you take lecithin? 400 mg? 800 mg? or more?

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 Hi Guru, I have taken lecithin for a long time without the results that I got from taking benfotiamine. I still take lecithin in addition to the benfotiamine.
