Thanks for the info. I've read up on vitamin B6 (P5P, bioavailable form) which could help with nerve and numbness issues.

You probably need to ensure that the numbness is PD related. I had pain and numbness in my left arm and it ended up needing Neurosurgery - it was a spinal nerve problem and not related to my PD.

Hi, thanks. It could be carpal tunnel syndrome. It's my mum who has PD. I've started her on magnesium citrate and it has helped her with breathlessness, constipation, and reduced tremors. As for the numbness - in her right arm, and now her fingers - it could be a deficiency in B vitamins. I've read from Terry Talks Nutrition that magnesium (in citrate or glycinate form) goes well with vitamin B6 (or P5P, a bioavailable form) for numbness and damaged nerves. Might start her on B6 soon. Hope you are better now.
