I have the same low sex drive with b12 deficiency due to perniciius anaemia. I am just to tired to be bothered. No point in seeing the gp as they just say it is another symptom of depression. They would rather treat youfor depression than sort out your PA or for those with hypothyroidism their true illness.

Same here Marylyn I was told "well I'll let you have B12 loading injections but don't reply on them to make you feel better!!" My level was 105 at the time.

I agree dr told me ask your friends your age to see how often they do it.I was married for second time initially no problems then started that thyroxin. Which I believed I didn't need & my life wiltered.Now trying to pick up & repair nerve damage feet numb & hearing loss thanks to late diagnosis from 7 specialists & 12drs who I saw & never even recognised neuro symptoms.do your own research today as drs have got no idea.
