Thanks, Eric. You should research the reishi. I don't know what other meds you take and I would caution you to check out all the side effects and interactions first but there is belief based on empirical data that they repair nerves or improve the body's ability to repair nerves. I have tried dozens upon dozens of medications, supplements, food and nothing has given me results achieved with reishi mushrooms. I stopped for almost 90 days with zero regression in improvements. I do know they are really potent and experimented with dosing in soups and found some pretty intense variations. I was amazed at the latest study that claimed they improved the efficacy of chemo/radiation and lessened the side-effects of chemo/radiation. It was done at MSK. I have read some studies on motor neuron diseases and reishi mushrooms as well. Not for the weak of heart literally and figuratively. smile
