Quick questions, I hope!
My doctor has agreed to this test but said we should wait until after 4 weeks after a third monthly injection of b12.
I don't really see the point in waiting, because if it confirms a Pernicious Anemia diagnosis, that would hopefully mean I could start on more frequent loading injections to get me back up to speed quicker.
At the moment, I'm getting about a week's discernible benefit/improvement from the monthly injections.
Is there a point to waiting that I might be missing?
And how long should this test be done after the last b12 injection - can the injections skew the results or (as I suspect) would the antibody be there regardless of the amount of b12 in my system?
My serum b12 was 250 and my active b12 was 113, by the way.
