Self Injecting and pregnancy

Hello everyone, it's been a week now and my GP hasn't heard back from the specialist that he has requested a second opinion from. In the mean time I still feel worn out and anxious. My GP has said that he will not give me any more injections.

So if the specialist comes back and agrees my only option is to SI. I am also trying for a baby... one of the many reasons that I want my B12 at a normal level. However I would feel very reckless self injecting if I was to become pregnant.

Any advice please, thanks

Are you a member of the PAS - if not you could try joining and contacting them - they have a registered nurse working with them who should be able to give you good advice.
