3rd time all low!
Posted , 2 users are following.
Im 23 and have been put back on Iron, Folic acid and B12 for the third time now, finally been referred for an Endoscopy and no idea what that's going to come back saying but I was wondering my b12 levels were 260 four months ago and they're now 197 and all I've been told is to go to Boots and get some Multivitimins to treat this.. I feel so depressed, low and cannot be bothered to do anything, I cry everyday and am gettin exhausted just walking up stairs, is there any way with a level of 197 I could ask for the Doctor to give my injections back, as this is the third time it's been low as well and they're the only thing that have made me feel better.. I don't have pernicious anemia, but after taking Boots tablets they're not doing anything, I feel worse if anything!

I have B12 def have injections every 3months my level goes up to the 600s when have this then drop to 300s when next due i still get all your symptoms crying, depression, fatigue and my ferritin level has dropped now get tingling in hands and face. Most docs dont know how to treat this, are you on face book as they have some B12 deficiency Groups and have people on there who have extensive knowledge on this and will help you, if not keep going back to GP and demand injection. your probably not absorbing the tablets. x
