Now that I self treat in a way that I no longer experience symptoms associated with B12 deficiency and the resulting known damage I am finding it helpful to think in terms of neurological signals.
Temperature regulation becomes I now get signals that I am cold or hot and do not expose my body to situations that cause my body temperature to fluctuate abnormally.
I now get signals I am going to be hungry.
I now get signals I am getting tired or tired of doing a certain activity.
Pretty much I am well versed in listening to my body and it is disconcerting to have it be telling me things in a way that is new to me. Takes a lot of emotional energy to work on it. It is not all roses as I envisioned being symptom free would be.
I still do not yet trust that I will remain symptom free. That would be foolish and in my case not reasonable as I have experienced B12 deficiency often my whole life to varying degrees of intensity and length.

1 mg methylcobalamin 1 mg adenosylcobalamin every 5 hours including setting an alarm to inject at night.
I work with my hypothesis that the frequency of current official protocols is not valid and that the effective retention time is 4 to 6 hours. I have only been working with that for 20 days.
The amounts and form I inject is based on when I injected every 4 hours and did not inject by setting my alarm and getting up to inject. I have no data on the amounts and forms that are best as my data is based on a less effective frequency.
The positive result of 3 years and 1 month of study and evaluation. Much about evaluating what might be accepted as fact for no good reason. Including how many hours B12 injections are effective in the body.
I am different as I come to different conclusions about the current validity of current understanding and then make my decisions. I do not simply try what might work.
I am impressed about how you manage your treatment . The more I learn the more humble I get. B12 may perhaps act like insulin. But instead of blood levels lf glucose, you evaluate the symptoms. After my latest switch from sc to doing im injections I have wake-up symptoms again! I intreprete this in a positive way and continues daily im hydroxy!
I often use the term positive when I make a change that is positive. Because for me it's never immediately. I'm doing so much better.
Out of curiosity is SC to IM the only change or did you change forms or amounts or something else? If you don't mind making the effort of answering that's fine.
I had im inj from october 2022, 15 inj at my GPs, since then I have done sc inj by myself because they found no point in continueing injections. When I still was anemic two weeks ago, I reflected, and decided to go back to im inj, have taken dailiy in my thighs. In a week from today I will have new blood tests. But I notice better energy and kind of wake-up symptoms. I think I am going the right way. No other changes have been done.
