[QUOTE="ChetRoi, post: 1963578, member: 468700"] [USER=498890]@mahsiyat[/USER] , if I may offer the suggestion that since you had a B12 deficiency, consider trying a B12 cofactor instead of the off-the-shelf cyanocobalamin. It is further discussed in other posts. Also, you may not be aware that the serum cobalamin blood test is widely seen as inadequate, and the lower end of the reference range is in dispute, missing a segment of B12 deficient folks. Further, there are people like me who have a B12 transport problem where an otherwise adequate amount of B12 in the bloodstream cannot enter the cells leaving a person B12 deficient. A new "transcobalamin" test is of greater accuracy and is under development. B12 deficiency may well not be a problem for you but using methylcobalamin will help further reduce the possibility. The B12 cofactor methylcobalamin is also fairly widely available. I have used the sublingual (under the tongue) form. Most folks begin a dosage of 1 mg. Finally, another thread has more recent information on this topic. [URL]https://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/threads/undiagnosed-numbness-after-consuming-carbohydrates.140051/[/URL] If your medical issues are likely due to consuming carbohydrates, I would encourage you to post more detailed information about your experiences in the abovementioned thread.
