Hi all. New to the forum but finding it really helpful. So pleased I found it. Great advice. I am a heath worker and am shocked by my ignorance on B12 deficiency. Now I am trying to spread the word

Welcome Ziggyzugg ! As a health worker you can definitely help our cause by spreading the word . P.A. / B12 deficiency can bring misery to patients , which can be alleviated by a very cheap vitamin, We all need different amounts on a regular basis. This is not acknowledged by the medical profession . If you read the messages on this forum , you will hear how patients are bing mistreated .

Great to have you with us !

Thanks Wedgewood. Never thought I'd be the "patient" on one of these forums. I'll try and put it to use by evangelizing! Am trying to reboot with injections every 2-3 days.

I'm an ex-NHS worker of 36 years. I'm also trying to spread the word.

Ex colleagues who are still in work shocked by how I've been with b12 deficiency having worked with me for many years.

Some even gove the Injections. No training on PA . GPs often l ow little. A long term friend recently retired from Gp post. expected me to be cured and asked if I'm off the injections yet???

Hadnr come across anyone with such a low b12 on his career. Odd.

Hope you get help and support on here

Really hope you feeling a bit better soon.
