Guest guest Posted November 26, 2008 Report Share Posted November 26, 2008 Dear Jen, This is the niacin flush, and it happens for about the first 5 or 10 times you do it, and then wears off. Niacin is Vitamin B3. Tingling in extremities is most often due to lack of B vitamins, especially B6 and B 12, so start taking those daily and you can probably get rid of that annoying symptom. The B12 should be methyl cobalamin sublingual tablets (under the tongue). Best of Health! Dr. Saul Pressman Niacin Due to intense tingling and numbness of my extremities resulting from lyme disease and mycoplasma infections in these few days, I took the liberty the take 100mg of Niacin as my M.D. couldn't help me. After taking it for an hour, I experinced tremendous amonut of redness and itness in the body for over an hour. However, it seemed to help with my tingling and numbness and blood circulations. Prior to takng it, I could barely walk because of the tingling/numbness. After taking it, I was able to walk to the drugstore and the library to write this email. Please advise or share your experience. Thanks. jen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 27, 2008 Report Share Posted November 27, 2008 Jen, You will acclimate to the dose over time. Niacin needs to be built up to. Start with a low dose of less than 50mg, and adjust the dose upward as you get used to it. some take as much as 3000 (3 grams) An aspirin will mitigate the flushing, if it gets to be too much to stand.
