I am a 48-year-old man very active and considered myself to be in good shape no family history and yet the only thing I changed is I started taking vitamin B 12 for about two weeks and now I’m getting anxiety along with some chest discomfort on the left and right side

    Hi Claudio74139, If it's one thing I learned there are no coincidences with starting a new med or vitamin and developing symptoms such as you have described.  You should speak to your doctor as soon as possible and i would think you should also stop taking this vitamin B12 if it's something you did on your own since you're experiencing bad side effects.  Many people experience side effects from vitamins prescribed or over the counter. Good luck and hope your symptoms go away. Do call your doctor though...

      Thank you Mary.   I have stopped and today was already better. I’ll see how the next few days goes and if I continue to feel better then I will know it was that
