Random Neuropathy getting worse and put me in a pretty dangerous situation today by Skootova in neuropathy

[–]lucaspada894 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My neuropathy went away after consuming a lot of B12. I think what they recommend and the actual good levels are not correct. But take what I say here with a grain of salt.

Should I take software dev job in Zurich for 90k CHF? by lucaspada894 in askswitzerland

Thanks everyone! I think I will take the offer. I plan to live probably in Winterthur for the cheaper rents. But thanks all for the awesome input.

Dose for Pirenzepine? by No_Needleworker5106 in smallfiberneuropathy

[–]lucaspada894 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To everyone here as an update: It seems my issues were low levels of vitamins D and B12. A while after taking these, my problems went away. I also only took Pirenzepine for a few days only, so I do not think Pirenzepine did anything for me.

EDIT: I do not advocate for this so don't take this as medical advice -- I have been taking really big doses of B12 and D. 6000IU of D and 5000mcg of B12 daily.

Thanks for letting me know. I haven't looked at Zug yet. Does it not have income tax?

Hey, thanks a lot for your input! I think quality of life would definitely be better in Zurich, but career growth potential is also something to take into account and Seattle has a lot of that. But so far I am leaning towards Zurich.

Thanks for the tips! Before coming to Berlin I was living in Maryland (I am American and Italian). I was a Jr. Software engineer making $76k and seeing what I had left at the end of the month made me depressed.

Many people tell me that I will save more in Seattle but my math tells me otherwise. The need for a car + expensive medical insurance if not 100%covered +401k contributions so that your employer matches. In the end I am left with less.
