Side Effects - jelly legs

[Eoperez]

Hi All,

Following on from 1st injection yesterday I wondered if anyone else had a strange feeling in their legs after 1st shot?

I had jab in my left arm and about half an hour or so after my legs turned to jelly and just felt like they weren't a part of my body! Anyone else had anything like this?

I've googled it and done a search on here but to no avail. I'll mention it to the nurse tomorrow when I go for 2nd dose. It wore off after a few hours but was the oddest feeling!

The important thing to hold on to is that it went.

People do respond to shots in all sorts of way - and some do report feeling very tired and spaced out for periods of up to 48 hours after a B12 shot.

Yeah I was wiped out after it too, felt like I'd been drinking! Pleased I'd come straight home afterwards! Was all ok this morning so at least I know it won't last if it happens again!
