Lion's Mane Mushrooms for Nerve Damage?

I was diagnosed with transverse myelitis a few months ago. It affects the strength in my left leg. I've read that you suggested Lion's Mane mushroom to help with nerve growth. Would it be helpful to me? I am also doing acupuncture and have adopted an anti-inflammatory diet. If it is appropriate for me to take Lion's Mane, can I do so while breastfeeding?
