Update leg problems

Hi everyone

just to update you on my struggle to get my deficiency recognized. I went to see my GP last night ready for a fight (virtual boxing gloves on) and she produced a letter from my specialist who is concerned about my macrocytic anemia and symptoms. She has increased my injections to once a fortnight as the normal range obviously isn't my normal range.I was so happy I cried. It's only taken me three years and I know for some of you it's yet to happen. I hope that doctors will sit up and take notice soon.

Hi Expatkerry. Excellent to read such wonderful news. Entire swarms of B12 deficients across the country (if not the world) weeping and cheering on your behalf!

Hope your symptoms will soon be beaten into submission.

Take care

Whoopee expatkerry I'm so pleased for you and that yet another doctor has been "educated".

There is "life after P.A". and I'm still "clivealive" at 75 :)
