Numbness

[Chellebee]

Hi guys, need your help,

I’ve been having problems with numbness from my little finger to my middle finger never the other finger or thumb in both hands, I’ve been to the doctor I’ve been tested to for carpal tunnel and they don’t believe it’s that. However whenever I put my symptoms in a search engine it says it could be a b12 deficence, I have pernicious anemia and I have my injections every 2 months. can anyone relate or offer me advise??

I recommend doing the survey on b12d.org they have a lot of advice

Hi Chellebee you are certainly not alone in feeling the need of more frequent injections.

I had the same sort of arguments with my own "one size fits all" doctor and eventually "won" despite his trying to "palm me off" with "It can't be your P.A. because you are having the injections"

Keep on fighting.

I am not a medically trained person but I've had Pernicious Anaemia (a form of B12 deficiency) for more than 46 years.

I wish you well.

That sounds like Raynaud's syndrome. I've been getting that for about 25+ years. Sometimes my fingers look waxy or purple. It happens often when my hands are elevated, and if it's cool outside.
