    Hi Tina

    I haven't tried b12 but i've been taking vitamin D and helped me so much!! Still suffering but not as bad as I did a year ago..

    For me the anxiety and the body aches are the worst..I walk everyday for about an hour and that makes me feel better. No sugar, caffeine and alcohol helped also as well as reading!

    It's horrible, I know but try to take time for yourself..

    Feel better

    I am on B12 and D. Both have helped. Been on them for a couple years now. When I forget to take it, I can tell. I get all tired.

    Dear Tina

    I sympathise with you, I have had most of those symptoms, I had a bad case of anxiety and couldnt even face going swimming which I try to do abit each week. I remember having a bad panic attack and needed to get out of the pool. I also had a bad one while at home too. I'm alot better now but still feel anxious at times in certain places and situations. I think low magnesium can also up the anxiety. I started taking multi vit for over 50's and it seems to help especially with the anxiety. It is wise to avoid caffeine and alcohol as these seem to make things worse x

      Try to drink decaf tea, caffeine adds to the anxiety. You can get B12 at any grocery store or vitamin store. Try vitamin D also..it's amazing how better you will feel after a week or so..
