Im looking a bit of advice please, last year i was getting b12 injection from the gp every 3 months, the gp tested my b12 and it went very high over 1847 and said to stop but recently my bloods were 321 again. Is this low for me to ask for b12 injections again?

Yes!!! It was wrong of the Dr to even test for b12 levels if you’ve been diagnosed with PA or b12 deficiency.

How are you feeling, have your symptoms worsened?

In terms of what’s high, mine has been over 5000 a few months after my first loading dose and on monthly injections, but was soon back to a 1000ish again when I settled into them, got iron levels up, etc,

Many will no doubt answer you, hope you’re soon given those injections back.

They tested me for PA and it was negative

Hi, that doesn’t mean you haven’t gotbPA,as you probably know, it can take many tests before it shows up as positive?

With those symptoms that Dr should be giving you back your b12! Did you find 3 monthly kept all the symptoms at bay? How’s your iron/ferritin/vut d/ thyroid levels too?Sorry you’re suffering because of it and hope you soon see an improvement…take care
