Hey all !

Hope everyone doing well ! 

It's gowtm 27_M

       Last year -16 October one day suddenly I felt room spinning sensation while working at noon time ,. Then I checked my blood pressure, sugar, and hemoglobin everything normal.

          Then after some three weeks again same problem came this time no spinning sensation but constant dizziness mostly severe at morning also felt my head is heavy.

            And I meet with Dr. She sent me to ENT specialist there I prescribed for inner ear infection medicines with some balance exercises but no change in my case.

           So I got forwarded to neurologist there he took MRI of my brain result came fine but still he prescribed some medicines but no improvement. 

           In between myself decided and did master health check up with ECG, x-ray, ultrasound.etc all are fine.

             My symptoms are constant dizziness, heaviness in head, blurry vision, thirsty feeling, occasional spinning sensation, raising heart beat if I suddenly wakeup, chest and shoulder pain, deep breathing etc,.

              While am surfing net found my symptoms are closely related with b12 deficiency and checked my b12 which was 210 pg/ml and reference range is 180-914 even am not deficient in this range as it's in border I took 6 injections for six weeks and stopped. 

         Then for next three months I completely felt normal then slowly symptoms started again so I put 4 injections already last month but not much improvement. So now am doubt , is b12 only the reason or something else ? 

           Am not strict vegan and I didn't have any health issues before . Then why this? If it is  due to b12 how to find root cause ? Who I have to meet next ? Or any other health issues? Should I have to continue my injection? 

            All these questions are running over my  mind and I could not concentrate on my work !

         So please suggest me anyone what to do next ? 

       Thanks!

    Hi, I have been getting b12 jags for the past 6 years ( every 3 months for 5 years, now every 2 ) .  I was diagnosed with pernicious anaemia and also prescribed folate acid to take daily. A couple of months ago I experienced similar symptoms, especially dizziness. This was because I hadn’t taken the folate acid for a couple of days. Hope this helps a little
