No sorry and I was taking up to 10x5000mcg of them! Have you taken anything else that's new or introduced a new food?

No I haven't changed my diet and I'm no longer on melds as I have graves and I'm in remission at moment

Yep, I have the same thing. I am taking a lot of other supplements but I am pretty sure its down to the B12. R x

I put it down to alcohol but could be the B12!

Not a big alcohol drinker so don't think it's that I might knock b12 on head for a few days. To see if it goes away

Have you been eating asparagus recently? That makes urine smell really strange.

It probably is your supplements. On the odd days I don't take some my urine returns to normal. B complex is a big cause for me. Stop taking it for a day or two and drink plenty of water and see if it is okay then. x
