Hello, I am desperately looking for a doctor who is competent about vitamin B12 deficiency and/or pernicious anemia. I am positive to gastric parietal cell antibodies, my B12 levels are 444 (should be between 200-883) so nobody takes me seriously because it's not low. GPs won't even consider injections. I have severe chest pain, low iron profile, daily tachycardia, strong headaches, photosensitivity, pins and needles, loss of smell since childhood, hairloss since adolescence, fatigue, extreme tiredness, now confusion and occasional memory loss short-term.My MMA, intrinsic factor are ok, but ALL MY SYMPTOMS go away after I take 1000ug B1, 2000ug B12 and 400ug B9. Unfortunately they come back after a day, I think because the effects go away.
I clearly have something related to B12 but not many doctors know about it they don't think it's possible because my B12 levels are within range, even if I am positive to gastric parietal cells antibodies.
I am looking for a doctor in the Glasgow /Edinburgh area but anywhere would do. Thank you
