Being put to the test on 6 day b12 injections for a few months now. Was on 2 weekly for a year. First trip as a car passenger 40 miles in 2 years!! I'm a Nursery nurse so pleased i got here to form a legal 'bubble' I know I'm needed as son in law collected me .No midwife home visit or long in hospital.
Such a wonderful feeling toi be of use and have the skills . On more pain relief and not going for a walk.
Steep stairs and a baby enough e exercise. In bed by 7 so lights go on .
I was aiming g to drive myself. Nor possible yet . (Head symptoms. )
So a step in the right direction.
Frustrating no where near functioning like I used to even after a 12 hour night shift. !! but coping g with pain relief.
Thank goodness for own supply of B12 injections .
Thank you all for helping with this
I feel a positive move. Slow but happening.
I used to think where there a will theres a way . Not with this!!

As for being of use - perhaps you haven't taken into account how many people you have helped here ? How many people you have cheered up and/or given advice to ?
I'm really happy that you got there, and that your family have the reassurance of your presence when introducing a new baby into a strangely altered world.
Some things never change - and for those things, you need your mum - and lucky baby to have you for a Granny !
Indeed! I definitely appreciated all your help and support. Congratulations!
Nackapan how wonderful for you it’ll give you a new lease of life trust me,I’m privileged to have 6 grandchildren and have one great grandchild and they fill me with hope and determination to live my life to its fullest even though I can’t do all the physical stuff I’d like to just the fact that you feel needed again it’s enough for me,the intrusions into your privacy the random questions they ask you the most trivial things that are so important that they just love to share with grandparents are heart warming ,enjoy every minute and know your needed and many congrats again xx
12 hour shifts a distant memory for me and even daily b12 injection wouldn't get me anywhere close 😊 but it's wonderful that you can help out and a bonus to be getting lots of granny cuddles.
12-13+hr shifts if not able to leave on time (not maternity) Also a distant memory. 7 grandchildren and one great grandchild and you never stop learning. Iv learned a lot about thyroid just by being on here and still need to ask about something. Shame the Endo’s and GP’s don’t come on here and learn a thing or two. Congrats to all.
Thankyou. Trying to move and use my body after 2 years of trying to get well a challenge.
Loving it though. Such strange times and concentrating on the new life of my granddaughter in a 'bubble ' to stay legal and detached from the outside for a while
I generally sneak over to this forum to enjoy your flower garden and now maybe I can look forward to a beautiful baby, should " baby ' give consent amid the blooms !!!
Congratulations - hope all is well with Mum - such a special time for all of you :
Congratulations to your new mummy and daddy and you ! And welcome to the world to the new addition to your family
Amazing how sometimes a bit of mind over matter can help us achieve what to some is normal but we all know only too well that is just not possible without self injection and our own treatment plan
So onwards and upwards well for me on with my wetsuit and in the sea I go it’s raining but I’ll be wet anyway !
And if I have to say to one more person ‘could you just move to the side a little so I can go down the slip way ‘ ( to get in the sea ) and they ask me why or offer an expletive I may have to get a tattoo on my forehead just saying Back Off🤭
Take care and thank heavens for the new nappies and you are not outside with terry towling ones buckets of nappysan and a mangle to ring them out 😂
Its actually wonderful for my brain I.provements using my brain that has years worth of useful information and practical skills for new parents. Just this baby so familiar . . 🥰
Congratulations Granny Nackapan! Grandchildren are the best I also agree with Cherylclaire about you being useful right here on this forum. Thank you for all the help you've given me through your posts here.
Yes you are right. Having a positive direction mentally has really helped me .
My work was always in the caring profession and I'm amazed how much I remember . Just very aware I cant go into automatic and really having to be cautious. I clock off early as so light sensitive so that works.

Trying to grasp (a) when further testing beyond B12 is needed, (b) when B12 sublinguals are called for, and (c) which sublinguals are best
B12 Allergy?
