We all have Pernicious Anaemia (amongst many autoimmune conditions & specialist has recommended trying Methylocbalamin . Does anyone have any advice on where to obtain please.

I already buy T3 Meds from Germany but couldn't see Methylocbalamin on their list.

This is the only pharmacy in Germany that sells injectable methyl cobalamin.

You can call them (they speak English) or write an e-mail. 10 ampulles 1ml/1000mcg cost about € 28 plus postage.

Olga 67 has given you all the information you need . I have dealt with them in the past and they are excellent . You need to email or phone them first with your requirements. They do not have a site from which you order. They ship using courier . So no matter how many packs you order, the shipping costs the same. (More economical ordering for 3 people !) You pay by PayPal in advance.

Hi Wedgewood, this is info I need so perfect. Does Arnika do Cyanocobalamin too? I’m just realising from the experience of others that hydroxo is not agreeing with me at all, I feel more unwell on it. If not would it have to be a US source?

No , Arnika only produces Methylcobalamin. You can obtain Cynocobalamin from the German pharmacies where you obtain Hydroxocobalamin ( ie Bodfeld , versandapo , Amazon.de Search for Hevert vitamin B12 forte

FORTE indicates that the cobalamin is Cynocobalamin.

DEPOT indicates Hydroxocobalamin.

Thanks Wedgewood that’s really helpful. I’m really hoping that one of the other forms works better for me. It’s hard sorting all this out when you feel awful isn’t it!

Forgot to say that Hevert ampoules are 1mg /2ml . so you will need a 2ml syringe .Yes , that’s just another of the problems when you have the symptoms. Dealing with the ignorant doctors is another . It’s more difficult to argue one’s corner , if not impossible .

Hi Wedgewood, I’m looking at the cyanocobalamin online and I can only see ampoules that are 2ml and 3000 mcg not 1000. Is this the equivalent dose to the hydroxo 1000mcg. I’ve looked on amazon.de and versandapo and they both only do this at 3000mcg injectable. Does that sound correct?

Thanks
