I'm convinced resting my hand on the corner of my desk for hours on the computer working the mouse caused my numbness in my little finger and my ring finger on my right hand. Even now I have to watch my hand position when using the computer.

Go ahead and laugh at me the way I laughed at my wife when she told me what her mother said. My mother-in-law said a doctor in Canada prescribed to her sister (I think) to take B100 complex once a day and B6 about 6 times a day.

I laughed and laughed. However, I have a wife that is very persistent. She bought the B vitamin stuff and kept bringing it to me to take. To appease her I did, and after a couple of weeks the numbness disappeared.

Like I said, if I keep my palm near the wrist resting too long on the edge of my desk working the mouse my little finger starts to get numb still. I do take vitamin B6 now occasionally when I notice it in the cabinet.

I don't think you're supposed to take the full recommendation for more than 2 or 3 weeks. I don't know why. Give it a try. You've nothing to lose. I don't think vitamin B is very expensive. Let's pray that the AMA doesn’t hear about this. They will figure a way to put this on prescription and charge $5 a pill.

I also know something that will get rid of athlete's feet that cost maybe $3 or $4 for a 20-year supply.

I don't want to post the cure publicly because the AMA would really jump on this. Anyone suffering athlete’s feet can email me.
