B12 patches seemed to have stopped working.

I have been using patches 5,000 mc for the last few years and have been doing well. At my last blood test a doctor said my readings were very low (no details) and has put me on 5 injections in the next 2 weeks and then every 2 months. why have the patches stopped working? Anyone else had the same experience?

Maybe you have been using up the B12 stored in your liver...apparently the liver can store enough B12 for up 6 years?

I have never used patches myself so can t really comment on that.
