Thought b12 was supposed to make things better

6 weeks post loading doses and taking oral supplements and my neurological symptoms and fatigue are the worst they have ever been :(

Not due for a blood test until December but wondered if anyone has experienced similar and will it get any better?

sorry, i have been on it for 13 years and it has never improved. I only have it as I know it could get worse/die without it, although am now injecting myself every 6 weeks as GP stopped appointments in March and are still not doing them Hmm

I became deficient in folic acid after about 6 months on B12 injections for deficiency. The symptoms were exactly the same as the B12 deficiency. I was prescribed high dose folic acid so might be worth getting that checked.

Yeah I'm taking 5mg folic acid as that was low also, I did have to request that after looking at my blood test results.
