When I walk, I feel like someone must feel who has palsy; my legs and torso and sometimes arms feel twisted.

Anyone else? I just started b12 injections every other day, folate, magnesium, b compiles, b6. I don't know how else to articulate how it feels. After a month, the burning in my legs has stopped.

What do you mean by "says it all?" Sorry to be so dense.

Seriously, clivealive, what do you mean by "says it all?." Is it good/bad/indifferent?

It's so wonderful that you are walking, the proof that B12 is doing it's job! So glad your burning leg pain stopped too, I don't miss mine at all.

I walk like a toddler most mornings when I first get up, wobble through doors and bounce off furniture its like my legs dont want to go in a straight line, my arms also feel heavy and as if they dont belong to me, better for a while after my injection but gets worse again before next one is due. Hope you start to improve soon .Best wishes.

Pitney,

How long have you been treated for? What are you taking?

Been treated for 3 years or so, but still get problems as my injection wears off, also take supplements.

Yes, Pitney, another good description of the walking. I also sometimes walk like I'm drunk.
