Hi been having B12 injections for 7 years every 12 weeks

Asked the nurse what my readings are 400 she says they are normal readings and that my B12 is now within normal range

I said I feel so tired I can hardly function the words coming out of my mouth do not make sense

She recommended I see the doctor

I so have a couple of autoimmune diseases I know these make me tired also

What should my range be I am 65 x

Ignore ranges. Ask the doc to determine what's causing your problems. Suggest that you try B12 jabs every 8 weeks.

I have to say I didn't feel an immediate lift at all with the shots, but now that I'm self-injecting I'm starting to feel the fog lift. I'm nowhere near as far into this journey as you are, but I've lost nearly a year of work, haven't been able to get out of bed, read, write.....so the SI really feels like a massive step forward. Maybe think about trying?
