Did starting B12 load up injections cause my stomache problems??

Posted , 2 users are following.

I had bloods done and told I was anaemic and needed b12. I started with one every other day for nearly two weeks. During having them my chest started to get tight . A few weeks later I had chronic reflux symptoms burping constantly, trouble swallowing and drinking, stomache swelling, my mouth constantly watering chest felt like I couldn't breathe. I could nt eat as caused so much pain .

I went to doctor. and was prescribed 30mg lansoprazole which went up to 90mg. I still struggled the breathe, I then was told I had crackling in my lungs and given antibiotics and inhaler. It's took at least 6 months for my symptoms to improve. I had the camera down throat which just had lots of bile stained fluid which they removed. After having bloods tests for celiac I was told I need a high dose of Vit D for three months.

My memory is terrible , I ve lost so much weight I have to buy kids clothes. I have pains in fingers and still get breathless and then my lungs start to hurt.

I have never been ill like this ever and it's caused me to have anxiety and depression.

Anyone who has exerienced what I have or any info would be really appreciated . Thanks X
