[QUOTE="Q007, post: 818769, member: 73045"] A few months ago, a colleague told me he'd noticed I was forgetful, seemed to have major issues with critical reasoning with numbers and logic, memory was poor, that I seemed very lethargic and tired \ low energy, poor mood. I'm so lucky to have someone who would be this honest. Anyway, I took it all to heart and went to see GP who wanted bloods done and said she was on the look out for something. I got a call a few days later to say my B12 levels were through the floor and needed treatment. I asked what the symptoms would be and she read out the same list as my colleague had told me, I could have finished every sentence that she said. Apparantly tablets don't work, sublingual sprays not much better and transdermal patches have a little bit of an effect but what I'm booked in for is a course of injections every other day for 2 weeks and then they see how my liver has stored the B12 which decides whether I need them for life \ prolonged period. What I'm worried about is what triggered this all off? is it that I'm T2? Does anyone else have this issue and would you be so kind as to share your experience or knowledge. I'm waiting on a list (quelle surprise) to start treatment and I'm so hoping I'll see an immediate improvement when the treatment does start. I would apprecoate any feedback or comments from you, as usual with me I worry so much. I trust the day is finding you well today, Kind regards Q.. [/QUOTE]
