Feeling tired

[Happy-go-lucky]

Can't wait for maintance jab. Feel so tired. Can't concentrate and very pale. Anxiety pretty bad. I did come on my period today so may make things worse. Does any body else feel worse around their period?

I found that taking a lot of B12 meant that the extreme anxiety that I got before my periods diminishes a lot - can still notice and be aware of some but not how it was - also experience more numbness in hands and feet (water-retention aggravating the situation) and electric shocks in legs.

Suspect its more a question of everything gets worse if B12 isn't high enough but the worse is about 100xworse when all the hormones get involved

You will be losing blood and are still in need of more Oxygen in the blood you have left. You should not be this bad before your shot is due. Ask your GP for more frequent doses. If not get patches or nasal spray. I have now settled down with bimonthly injections and strong patches.

Good luck

Has anyone managed to get increased b12 just on anxiety problems? My anxiety seems to be getting worse- I get three monthly injections but am forgetting words more depsite my b12 now being over 1500 just before injections

thanks
