Methylcobalamin and liver toxicity or its effects on liver finction

[mariolin]

I have hashimoto's 22yrs, Adrenal insufficiency , Pernicious Anaemia since 2015.

I havehydroxycobalamin injection every 2 months GP will not allow me to have it monthly. I have neurological symptoms on left side . A private doctor said I could have Methylcobalamin on alternate day and provides the injection.

Yet after injecting with Methylcobalamin the numbness, balancelurching are worse also I get an ache and pressure in the right upper abdomen.

Is it possible that Methylcobalamin puts a strain on the liver especially in those affected

With Hashimotos?

not aware of anything specific to hashimotos and types of B12.

People do vary a lot in which types of cobalaminsuit them and may be that methyl just doesn't suit you.

No toxicity associted with B12 so think the liver toxicity is a red herring.

You will read that this happens as the nerves are waking up again. It's all very well explained. Just put search in box.

Good luck.😀

Thank you for the reply Marymary7, I do understand about the nerves reawakening from a state of semiparalysis, but my problem seems to be abdominal, as I said perhaps it is due to the adrenal insufficiency progressing. Will put in search box ?

Have you had your gall bladder checked? Abdominal pain is hard to diagnose. Any surgery in the past in your abdomen?
