B6 for HGH induced carpal tunnel syndrome

[BABY1]

TweetI had come across this awhile ago and thought this would be helpful to many of you.


Research has also shown that supplemental multi-vitamins, especially containing B6 (pyridoxine), may help or prevent this condition. Vitamin deficiency is the most likely cause for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome to occur while on HGH therapy.

Side Effects of HGH - Carpal Tunnel
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is a condition characterized by pain and numbing or tingling sensations in the hand and caused by compression of a nerve in the carpal tunnel at the wrist. Doctor Elmer M. Cranton, M.D states that the likely reason for this is that the increases in levels of growth hormone speed tissue repair and protein synthesis in the body; this rebuilt tissue can potentially pinch the nerve, if the nerve is out of place. This tissue repair can create a greater demand for all nutrients, which may therefore aggravate any preexisting vitamin deficiency. If this is combined with other things that HGH may cause, namely increase in body water content and slight increases in the bone mass of the forearm and wrist, it's easy to see that HGH could trigger carpal tunnel syndrome if it was on the verge of occurring anyway. Rehydrated tissues can bulk back to normal within a carpal tunnel that was already narrowing with age. Both those effects, incidentally, increased hydration and stronger bones, are beneficial to the body as a whole.

TweetHave heard for years that B6 can help people with hand numbness...It wont hurt to try it...Maybe in higher doses it will work...I dont supplement any Bs since I drink brewers yeast several times a day LOL

TweetThis tells me that if you are a person who is not on the verge of carpal tunnel, or is not defiecient in this vitamin, you may not get these symptoms while using HGH.

TweetThis personally did not work for me. What did was lowering my roseate or coming off all together. My 2nd go round with hgh I tapered up the dose age much slower and am now where I feel like I'm on the verge of carpal tunnel but it's manageable... Numbness and some pressure but no terrible pain like before.

The reason it may have not worked for you was maybe because the problem was not with your B6 level? this is just one reason the pain can happen if one is deficient in b6. Glad to hear you resolved the problem though
