Does anyone get head pressure after injecting Cytamen daily as a loading dose

Hi there I’ve just joined the PA society.

I’ve had the same issues as many on here of symptoms not being taken seriously just because my B12 is not low enough for them. Even though the trend is down from 390 4 yrs ago to 250 last week.

They won’t test for intrinsic factor.

I have been ill now for approx 15yrs. With Lyme disease which has gone with stem cell therapy to aid my failing immune system.

Then it was mold toxicity which apparently attacked my immune system which left me vulnerable to Lyme disease.

So I have been treated mainly by Functional medical Dr’s.

Question after a long winded intro I have started daily injection of Cytamen, does any one get head pressure after injecting. I changed from daytime to nighttime injections fir this reason.

Thank you in advance

Ps I'm guessing that cytamen is a brand of b12. In the US

I use Hydroxocobalamin

I started injections in Novembed 2018. I recently changed from 2 weekly as after a year on that regime thought I'd try 5- 6 days . That's what I'm trialling now.

I've not had a symptom free day yet. I have made alot of improvrments though. Nothing else had bed found wrong.

One neurologist thought post concussion syndrome. J hafca fes folks now j know from los b12! They coukdnt agree. The only test result that said anything was low b12.
