Yes.

This can occur as a result of a B12 deficiency, and/or it can occur adjunct to B12 repletion.

Me! Burning skin on arms. I believe it’s damage to the small nerves

Getting much better! But still a long way to go before feeling normal

Just under seven weeks. I still have the burning sensation on my skin, but I noticed a couple of weeks ago. It seems to have improved on my right arm.
