Oh and all this damn B12 I take has my skin all jacked up too! I got the to dermatologist this for that.

Interesting. I haven't heard of that side effect. Whooo hooo, something to look forward to.

Hey Jamie, I am really sorry about your mom. I can't imagine that.

I forgot.

 

[toppick08]

Yes.

Eat more red meat.....:shrug:

 

[Jameo]

Yes.

Do they know why?

While my pernicious anemia isn't all that bad, my great uncle has a B12 deficiency due to some rare type of leukemia dealing with his bone marrow (My hematologist wanted to do a bone marrow biopsy on me but my level started coming up after my first shot or 2, THANK GAWD!!)

I had no idea a vitamin B12 deficiency could do so much damage. Thank you for the info. Also, I'm so sorry you had to go thru so much and all at once at that.

From my experience..............

Were you malnutritoned? No, not that I recall

Did they blame it on alcohol? No

What were you symptoms? The biggest issue was I was constantly tired and never seemed rested, no matter what I ate/drank/exercised, I never felt rested.

Did you feel depressed? At times, yes

Did they put you on meds besides vitamins? No, just suggested the shots with B-12 vitamins

Did you get injections? If so, for how long? Yep, once a month for about 4 months, then I got tired of taking the shots but kept taking the vitamins.

Did the injections help? Yea but it wasn't a drastic improvement.

What was your B-12 level when they found it low? When I first had bloodwork done (May 2007), my level was 180 and normal range was 193-982. When I had my bloodwork rechecked in January of 08, my level had moved up to 562 and my range changed to 211-911.

Hope that helps you some.




I have more but that's a start.[/QUOTE]

B-12

I have gone to my family Doctor for the last six months complaining
about being so tired and no energy I have had several blood test in
the past six months.Finally I was referred to a neuroligist he did
blood work and I was told that I was B-12 deficant he said that the
count should be between 200 - 1000. Mine was right at 200 I was
put on B-12 for three months and then I have to be retested if the
count doesn't come up then he said I will have to go on B-12 shots.

I'm due to be retested now.But since I have been taking the B-12
I feel so much better and not tired at all like I was three months ago.
There is a world of difference.
