Do you think you're getting enough B12?

If you have neurological symptoms (memory problems would count), I would expect you to have had....

A B12 injection every other day until your symptoms stopped improving then a B12 injection every 2 months.

See link below which talks about UK treatment for B12 deficiency

Have you been diagnosed with PA (Pernicious Anaemia)?

If you don't think you're getting enough B12 then next two links might be helpful.

There is a helpline number that PAS members can ring.

PAS membership is separate to membership of this forum.

Keep asking questions and I'm sure someone will try to answer them.
