Hi just phoned my doctors surgery - on hold for 31 minutes and when i tried to make appointment was told i have to email nurse who will check my records and see if I am eligible !!! I have been having them for many many years and now they are casting doubt on whether that was necessary !!! I had a lung operation and went into surgery to have stitches removed early in May and the nurse went to ask a doctor if I could have B12 injection a week early as it would save me coming to surgery again and doctor agreed that it was necessary and I had it then !!! Now have to wait for nurse to let m know !!! olive smith

Hi Whitch

Welcome to the ThyroidUK forum.

Have you posted this on the right forum? There is the Pernicious Anaemia forum where they discuss all things to do with B12 who may be in a better position to make a suggestion.
