That B12 is a progressive condition with an unknowable age of onset and intermittent to varying degrees.
That all symptoms can be caused by B12 deficiency in the cells including hematological symptoms and digestive issues. Symptoms are only measurable at an untreated advanced stage.
A few competent practitioners understand observable neurological systems occur prior to current testing detection and then progress.
Note: Current protocols are designed for the mean. Works for some, slowly, others never. The methodology currently is if standard protocols fail even eventually there must be another cause other than the protocol for the mean is not applicable. Mediocrity.
Hypothesis: That if B12 is treated in a way that is effective then the improvement is rapid and measured in weeks. Ineffective treatment takes a ‘long time” if ever.
If the symptoms associated with B12 are resolved than a period of time of continued effective treatment a person will have different experiences as their neurological system changes that are not currently associated with B12 deficiency.
There is the consideration/risk that B12 could be administered at 5 hours apart at to high a dose at first which would not be efficient and the body would heal to quickly.
Note: All my personal data on forms and amounts is based on the effects of undersuplimetation due to less than 5 hours apart.

Right now I do not want to play anymore. I am sick of doing this work. That I have effectively designed a protocol resulting in being B12 symptom free does not matter to me right now.
The doing the study which includes evaluation and therefore different conclusions than the experts and those on this forum, discovering hypothesis, designing a trial, procuring the supplements, designing a way to evaluate appropriately the results of the trial and going through the disruptive period of adjustment to a new trial even if is successful has a high degree of difficulty and takes a lot of energy. It is not related to finding what works by experimentation which I do not do and do not understand how it is done. I obviously have to test my hypothesis, I do come to a rational conclusion prior to committing to a trial. It does not follow that I think I am correct rather it is a probability.
I don’t want to do that work right now. Taking a break and just continuing to improve which likely sounds like an easy decision is not. I did not get here by following others.
I think it would be OK if I did not fear the winter so much based on past winters including when I was self under-supplementing. There is also a window of better weather than usual and I would like to take advantage of that.
I have done some work on my next hypothesis that may result in a trial. I have three main avenues of discovery to work on so far. That is less than typical.
I went to Boston yesterday and had an enjoyable trip. I did take my gear to inject. It did not work out that I could find a place I thought was not too great a risk for 9 hours. I think that is why I am off today.
Although I trust my conclusions from my studies intellectually I still harbor what is thought to be true. That injecting EOD will provide more than enough B12. I still have not internalized that my self-treatment of every 5 hours is what my body needs to continually heal at a rate that is acceptable to me. In my defense it has only been 18 days and adjusting to this rapid improvement has a high degree of disruption.
As I write I am leaning more towards I can not take any more improvement than I am experiencing now and that outweighs any possible benefit of an improved protocol for the next 90 days. That sucks.
I worked it out yesterday that even it was summer it likely would not be best to try and improve at a more accelerated pace. So that harsher weather is coming is not a factor to consider at this time regarding trial.
Pretty much it was about my reasonable fear.
I never hope that fate will be kind or unkind. I enjoy it when it happens to favor me and grieve when it is not. I do however hope I made choices that work out.
Part of my ‘being off’ I expect is from not injecting for 9 hours.
I have decided that should I crash this winter I will inject the same amount every 4 hours. I have no data on amounts as all my data is from injecting too far apart.
I am studying antibiotics. As an environmental scientist I am aware that current testing can now detect antibiotics in sewerage and lots of silly conjecture has been sold with regards to effects on the environment that are not valid. Most importantly that super bacteria are created when it is more likely that new bacteria have been discovered that were there all along. I have studied eough to discover that ‘antibiotics bad’ is common and that it may effect gut bacteria. I am not allergic.
