I think you need advice from a different forum.This deals with b12 deficiency and Pernicious anaemia an autoimmune disease

Get some Zinc tablets. Zinc promotes healing. Everyday dose is 15mg but you might need a bit more just now.

I am afraid I haven’t anything useful to say in the way of medical advice, but just wanted to express my sympathy and hope that you WILL feel better soon.🥰

I am not a medic but I feel for you. In the past when I cared for people with wounds that would not heal I used two grades of manuka honey. You consume one tsp of the highest active grade honey daily and put the lower grade active manuka on the wound. Manuka honey is used in burn units in hospitals to promote healing of weepy wounds. Just a suggestion which may help. Big hug 🤗🤗🤗
