Just wondering how often people SI? I was having mine every 10 weeks for PA but the Doctors are no longer doing B12 appointments. I have received my supply from Germany and thought that every 4 weeks would be good as I really struggle around the 4 week mark. Any info would be great, thanks

suggest you keep a diary of symptoms and then use that as a guide to frequency - no point until leaving it until you are starting to struggle if there are signs you need it earlier than that
I was SI every 4 weeks between my 12 weekly GP injection but eased it down to every 6 weeks so now alternate GP/SI. Where did you get supply from? as the usual sites are not delivering outside of Germany and as I had "The letter" from GP this morning I'll need more.
I have recently received a delivery from
Select language from top right drop down box. Registered account and selected Pay Pals. Delivered in 4 days by DHL.
Hello and thanks for the info. I got my supply from Versandapo (using google chrome to translate to English) about 3 weeks ago and the needles, syringes, sharps bin and wipes from medisave. Hope this helps.
I inject every 2 days. I am still alive but still have symptoms so keeping on going with that regime. It’s highly personal so as others have said do what works for you. Good lucks

Thanks, very helpful.
I do mine once a month and find I’m pretty good for the most part. I usually start getting mouth ulcers towards the end of the month which reminds me sooner than my calendar.
I do mine every week. It took 2.5 years of treatment and support from this forum to finally realize I needed injections that frequently. Feeling good now. Very Grateful to the group.
Thanks for your reply. How often did you used to have them?
I was profoundly deficient when finally diagnosed - levels were undetectable. I was given weekly injections for 4 weeks, then monthly which allowed complete relapse. At 8 months I begged for an increase and was changed to every other week. At 2+ years, with the support of this forum I convinced my doctor to increase to weekly. On every other week injections I thought I was pretty much well but with weekly injections many symptoms that I hadn't recognized began to disappear. Now I think I am actually properly treated.
