Hi

Has anybody had an injection at one of the revive clinics?

My level in June was 217 and doctor refused me injections and because I was separate I started the methyl lozenges. So this will skew any future results.

I’ve been completely wiped out for some time now and off work with exhaustion, been having nerve pain in my hands and wrists and arms and feet feel sore when I walk at times.

How can I get the Gp to approve a trial of injections to see how I am? My latest level a few months after the lozenges started was 501 which is clearly a false reading. I don’t want to self inject.

Any advice appreciated thanks

B12horizon.co.uk will send a nurse to your home or work to give you B12 Hydroxocobalamin injections. Cost £89.15 per injection .. If you could possibly consider self injections ( which need not cost much more than £1.00 for everything you need ,if you buy in bulk ) I read the other day on this forum that the Auto-Injector which can be purchased at Union Medico ( in Denmark );costing about €90.00 is such an enormous help . That was recommended by someone who had an absolute horror of self -injecting. Perhaps you might like to look into that . ? You just cannot imagine how convenient it is to self-inject . No hanging around in waiting rooms catching colds and flu etc. You are in charge of your own health . Best wishes .

Ninety quid for a B12 injection! Ninety quid for 5 minutes work!

I need to set myself up in a new business. I've got the B12, I've got the needles and syringes, I've got the white coat. I just don't have the cold heart required to rip-off the gullible.

No , not £90 at Revive . It’s that much at b12 horizon.co.uk . But yes , what a rip-off . I expect these people are buying their B12 ampoules from the German online pharmacies that we use . No wonder they keep running out of stock ! I expect that versandapo.de knows what’s going on.

I thought you said that you had been refused by Revive , that’s why I sent details of B12horizon.co.uk . Sorry, I must have misunderstood . £89.00 is outrageous .

Hello! Yes! They’re brilliant. I used them for my loading doses when my dr refused to believe me. I have been to the one in Harvey Nichols and the one in New York. All excellent.

Hi Dotty yes they seem good and it isn’t too costly if you are desperate at £29 an injection. Though it’s a disgrace even having to get them myself but we all have too at some point! How many did you get with them and how do you get them now? x

Such a disgrace ! I have been using these guys since June. Loading doses till now once or twice a week. Cost a fortune but no price on my legs! X
