  1. Ik stelde een wat meer inhoudelijke vraag aan de B12 specialist. Hij maakte de grappige opmerking dat hij nog nooit zijn biologie docent iets heeft kunnen leren.

    Ik maakte het cirkeltje rond door te vertellen dat een oud leerling van mij nu bezig is met haar medicijnen studie.

    Mocht je denken dat jouw werk geweldig is, dan heb ik nieuws voor je. ;)

  2. Do you think you might have a B12 deficiency? Would you like to know what it is and what to do?

    Excellent info written by Tracey Witty:
    (so not by me, Omega_Scribet, but years ago I was diagnosed with a B12 deficiency after I developed serious health problems. I now get regular B12 IM injections.)

  3. 'B12':

    "What you need to know
    • The clinical picture is the most important factor in assessing the significance of results of blood tests assessing cobalamin (B12) status […]
    • Neurological symptoms resulting from B12 deficiency may take several months or even years to resolve completely
    • Measuring serum biomarkers such as B12 or methylmalonic acid is neither helpful nor indicated in assessing or monitoring clinical improvement […]"

  5. @thelad Clearly one shot is not enough, since you've gotten symptoms once again.

    I suggest you go back to the loading dose:
    b12deficiency.info/what-to-do-

    After that, take a second look at your maintenance dose. It might be necessary to change it.

    Me, I have to take an IM injection every 3 days, or I will get symptoms. I have had a very bad #B12deficiency for years.

  7. @CastlTrAstonDrs Thank you for mentioning this great study!

    My vision deteriorated for several months after my 2nd Covid infection, and my eyes hurt when watching from left to right. After reading this article and looking certain things up, I think it must have been neuritis optica!

    Mind you, after my first infection I got all sorts of B12-deficiency symptoms, which made me suspect that there was a demyelinating process going on.

  8. Guys, I have got my B12 supplements to use for 140 days that means it's for about half of 5 months use it every day. I have experienced a horrible day without it but after taking it everything almostly back to normal. As a vegan thanks to somebody who recommended me to buy some and told me to be more aware of this. Much love☺️ #govegan #vegan #B12deficiency

  9. @smollestbunny I've had those too. External tremors, (jerks, twitches), spasms, and fierce electric shocks. Covid messes with electrolytes (magnesium, calcium, sodium, potassium). Don't know why.

    #Covid aggravated my B12-deficiency as well, so I upped that too but It was extra salt and lots of potassium that stopped the twitching and shocks. I already took the max amount of Mg. 1/n

  12. All,

    I have started a second YT channel tied to my food blog that deals with health related stuff. I have gone through a few medical conditions at this point, and needed a space to talk about them.

    I will be creating several different series on there dedicated to different health topics.

    I created my first video the other day pertaining to correcting a B12 deficiency.

    The first video is how to load up a B12 syringe:

  14. @Enso108 TN sucks, and I don't think they always make the connection to #b12deficiency. They were going to have me do MVD until I got a second opinion. (I turned down the Gabapentin, which frustrated my old neurologist.)

    Injecting EOD until I get out of a flare and weekly thereafter seems to do the trick for me. That and making sure my C1 and C2 aren't adding further wear and tear on my nerves.
