I have just had a blood test and found out I have a B12 deficiency so need to take a supplement. Are injections better? Can you not get these of your GP? xx

I get B12 injections every 3 months from the GP. I had a subtotal gastrectomy 10 years ago and my body cannot absorb B12. I guess if you have a deficiency the injecton from GP is no different from any other prescription.

Just wondering if vit b12 injections are painful? I know that sounds pathetic but I am just a bit nervous about getting them.

I had a course of them a year ago, I found that they stung quite a lot, not like a normal injection at all. But They made such a difference so it was worth it!

Thanks! Yes, my friend said they sting but at this stage I am willing to put up with that.

I order from amazon.de if you have the app on your phone or tablet its super simple. Open the app go to settings and change country/region to germany leave language in english, then search b12 ampoule. Make sure you order hydroxocobalamin 1ml/1mg 10 in a box. The maker is rotexmedica.

The seller on amazon is apohealth - Gesundheit aus der Apotheke.

Takes 3 to 4 working days. Fantastic service. Hope that helps.

Ps. Change country/region back to uk when done.
