Hi All
I am still looking for an answer for aching muscles, which I've had for the last 3+ years now, so I've come on this forum.
90% of the aches are in the vastus medialis, as I am a keen cyclist.
I am also hypothyroid and on NDT.
I am also asthmatic, on seretide.
My last 4 Medichecks Active B12 results are:
Jan. 20. 160 (37.5 - 187.5)
Sept 19. 215 - same ranges
July. 19. 175. - same ranges
Feb. 19. 195. - same ranges
All the results above were based on a daily dose of 12.5 ug B12.
Not sure why I settled for this figure, many years ago now.
This week I 'read' that high or over range Active B12 may result in aching muscles, so I've come on here to ask for your advice, whether this is credible or not.
4 days ago, I started taking just 2.5 ug daily (the recommended dose) and will see if that helps with the aches.
Plus, is it the case that the liver stores excess B12 for very many years?
And I thought that B12, like the other B Vitamins was water soluble?
Thank you, any advice gratefully received!
