[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 2065203, member: 468714"] Just to chime n here. In the quoted study posted by [USER=388174]@SimonCrox[/USER], i did not see that any of these patients was screened for coeliac disease as a possible cause or contributing cause to their B12 deficiency. And thusI question if this might have confounded the results? As a story but not as medical advice or opinion: I can recall in the past when someone started on B12 injections, the serum B12 level at the 3 month (12 week) mark was checked before the next injection (im) and if near the lower end of the normal range, they would be recommended to change from 12 weekly to say 10 weekly or 8 weekly and then rechecked. Of course how accurate the B12 readings are is up for debate. Anecdotally, some persons with health professional experience and low B12 tried deep subcutaneous injections and their resultant B12 levels seemed satisfactory from what I was told. [/QUOTE]
