Following on from a previous post my B12 was 190 , so deficient and have had 6 loading dose injections which has definitely helped with fatigue . I am now taking B12 sublingual supplements . I have been taking PPI , Lansoprazole ,since I starting Prednisolone 18 months ago they are known to stop absorption of B12 from your diet . Though it may be of interest to some .
