HI everyone, I si with panpharma when I can get it, but the last year have been using hevert, eod or twice weekly. Thought I would restock even though not low, but before heat comes. So decided to order pasco has have heard its stronger so might be able to si less.

Arrived, so decided to try one, in usual place on my thigh, something felt strange, site was very sore afterwards speading down rest of leg, for rest of day, and also just felt weird bit of balance, which i dont need, and sleep was badly affected, had to visit bathroom every 30 mins all night. Dreading using again so injected today with usual. Any one else had this?

yes, it is a higher dose but didn't think it would affect me that much, maybe try again next week, see if same thing happens. Thank you Nackapan.

I forgot there was one brand that didn't suit me .My mum fine on it ??

As is my daughter ??

On second time used knew for sure to avoid it in the future .

The additives are different.

Hope that's not the case with you and just a blip.

Thank you B12again, just spent £110 on these so will try again, way back 2014 loading dose was done by cyanocobalamin and reacted badly , but this was different reaction.

I've been using Havert twice a week recently, I do get a slight tingling sensation, which goes away when I walk around a bit. Otherwise it's not causing any problem (thank goodness!).

I've ordered another batch of 10 and am going to inject every other day, as I'm noticing a good bit of improvement with the twice a week injections.

hi Saoirse2016 it's good when you know you're using the right stuff for you. Hope it keeps up for you.

I have used Pasco 1.5 mg in one ml for quite a while now and inject IM once every third day. Is by far the best for me and works out less expensive as well. I got used to it within a couple of weeks. I also take 5mg. folic acid daily and its working well.

HI thank you for replying, when you say it took a few weeks and then you got used to it, did you also have a problem with it at the start?

It just felt different. No real problem. Probably just getting concerned because it is a bigger dose.
