Hi Nagged. When I ordered from Germany it was here in about 4 days.

Who did you order from?

Can you email them to check where it is? Two weeks sounds like a long wait.

in reply to Foggyme

Foggyme ordered from versandapo, doesn't sound like a German company. Was in a bit of a brain fog at time, will try and track it tomorrow

Thanks

Hi Nagged. Versandapo is a German company. Lots here use it so if order went through okay, you should receive it. Usually very reliable.

Sorry about the brain fog...know just how that feels 😀.

Hope you're soon fog free. Take care x

I continued to have symptoms after my six injections. When my symptoms continued they said they would settle down after about four weeks. I still had repeat symptoms so I took a b12 vitamin - my doctor advice line said it was OK as any excess b12 would be urinated out. No repeat symptoms for a week after taking the vitamin - whether it helped or not I don't know.

Have you had notification that the goods have been dispatched?

I'd normally expect it to take about a week though I think my first order - from mycare.de took a bit longer than this because I was a new customer and they needed payment up front that time - but not sure if that is still the case.

Suggest you try contacting them to see what has happened

@Gambit62 order from versandapo, have only received a email newsletter in what I thought was German, to be honest didn't really know what I was doing.

Was still in a brain fog

Email the company as mine arrived 5 days after ordering.

Top up with B12 lozenges - patches - nasal sprays - whatever works. Yes as others have said - do chase that order .....

in reply to Marz

@marz will they work as was told could only get b12 into my body by injections

Probably as things are at the moment yes injections can give the best results. However you always need a back up plan. I would go for the lozenges and keep under the tongue until dissolved. Do not chew and swallow. That way the B12 will be taken up by the micro-circulation. Also investigate sprays. Some people use all of them ...

Thank you to everyone for your help

Did you contact the company about your order ?

in reply to Marz

Marz tried free phone no, if I can't sort it out tomorrow will re order

Think I possibly didn't completely finish order

OK think I was still in a brain fog when I placed order, not sure if I ordered from versandapo have sent email to them or ordered from Goldpharma

Will try and sort it out tomorrow

Think someone said if ordered from Goldpharma it would take longer because its charity run.

Will probley have to re order.

Head spinning just had email back in German think I have ordered from them, going to try and translate it, this is going to be fun

sorry to hear that you are struggling with this - one thing you could check is if anything has been charged to your credit card if you used that for the first order. If it has then you can go back to the company - if it hasn't then the chances are that the order didn't actually go through properly.

in reply to Gambit62

Gambit62 Think the problem is me must of not sent order, brain fog that day lol

if it is any consolation I spent 5 minutes yesterday hunting in the fridge for some cauliflower cheese - only to check my till receipt for the morning and find that I hadn't actually purchased it - easily done :)

in reply to Gambit62

Yes know how you feel was OK for a couple of weeks but now brain fog is starting to happen again ( laugh)

in reply to Gambit62

Gambit62 Due to personal problems at moment not able to access information. Will try and contact them on free no tomorrow or just re order, at least if both arrive I'll have enough for quite a long time.

Thanks for your help

The GP doesn't care if symptoms are back or not. Has accrued to anyone that everyone is given a small injection in three months. It is impossible that everyone would have to have the same amount at the same three month period. Not one person's body is the same as the other. Yet no tests are made to determine whether you need more sooner or not. How do they know how much I should have? They are going through the motions of caring and fixing but they are not concerned if you need it or not. My body doesn't utilise b-12 properly. I have fibromyalgia. They will not even recognize the ailment. Much less treat it.

in reply to debrandw246

Agree totally with you got two diabetics at home, imagine telling them they've got to have same amount of insulin. Thought NHS was in a mess before I became ill know definently know it's in a big mess. There's no way my GP is going to give me shot before 3 monthly one, stopped injections last year after 2nd one. Have been upsetting him already can't wait to change practice.

Just hope next one isn't as bad.

Absolutely. No two people are the same. I am allergic to the flu nab. Have been for years. I have to take an antiviral instead. Today my GP tried to get me to take it anyway to see if I am still allergic to it. ????? It isn't worth the trouble you must go through to ask them for an injection. I have a friend that works in the hospital and she says that the doctors are watched consistently but no one is watching the GP,s and they are getting away everything and just getting their pay check.
