I was reading some random things and I ended up finding an interesting case.

The guy was suffering a severe case of peripheral neuropathy without a known cause.

This supplemental regimen has raised my glutathione and helps maintain its optimal levels. It brought my severe peripheral neuropathy under control and resulted in increased energy levels, and in the pain staying mostly in the bottom of my feet now, instead of the whole body.

I think that what he did was similar to what @Helen talked about.

Oh shit this is freaking me out. I've been getting pins and needles in my arms and hands now for a while and it is starting to get worse. I think my feet are starting too

Same thing here, it happened before the insomnia crash, and now again... Do you have occasional pain and something like a hot flash?

No real pain so far. Some hot and cold flashes every now and then, kind of like a fever almost. It all gets worse when I'm in bed trying to sleep.

Yes, exactly what happened and is happening again now. The first time was really bad! Then started to fade to a nice 1 week window of good sleep, extremely mild pins and needles, hot/cold flashes, inner restlessness, even improved body sensitivity including some libido!

I think it is the classic post ssri non linear windows and waves pattern

I guess. I think it's strange this is happening to me almost 2.5+ years after coming off... never had pins and needles before :/ It's kinda freaking me out.

Believe me, its not rare in post ssri, symptoms kept changing, appearing, disappearing...

Dont forget that glutathione needs to be recycled by FAD and NADPH and glutathione itself. So some people can actually be missing b2 and they will have more NADPH avaiable, they will still not recycle glutthione and will have bad bad inflammation but they will have higher hormones. like testosterone and DHT.

These people will need higher b2 to b1 ratio in their B supplements.
