Avatar f tn Is it common for those with ms to have abnormally low levels of vitamin b12? I read that a vitamin b12 deficiency could mimic symptoms of ms but that doesn't explain remissions. Any information would be helpful. Thanks!
Avatar f tn Low/deficient vitamin B12 is usually due to conditions that cause malabsorption unless you are a vegan/vegetarian. Vitamin B12 sources include fish and shellfish, meat (especially liver), poultry, eggs, milk, and milk products. Excerpt from "Skin rashes from vitamin B12" by Ed Donner: "Side effects of B12 supplements are rare, according to Southern Care Healthcare Group, and generally occur with the injections and not with oral supplements.

98474 tn?1240105274 Just wanted to say Hi to all and let you know that after 2 months on vitamin b12, the overwhelming weakness in my legs is GONE after 6 years! The heat is not even making me feel weak! I am amazed and hopeful that this is indeed the main answer for my ms symptoms. I guess time will tell. If this is the result of my Mayo Clinic visit(they told me the b12 was not the total answer to my prob even tho they couldn't tell me what it was) then it was way worth it.
Avatar n tn I take vitamin B12 Complex once a day and there are no side effects to this dietary supplement. This is actually a great source and mineral for the reduction of anxiety disorders. Of course, like any oral med/mineral, it's possible to overdose...but you'd have to take a hell of a lot to get to this point! To me, u cannot get enough of Vitamin B....
Avatar f tn I started getting injections of B12 a two months ago. And the effects have been amazing with respect to energy and alertness and a bit with the pain! I tried the daily dose of liquid for about a month and found no difference. I hate having to go to the office for the shot, bu it is really worth it. I wish my doctor had thought to check my B12 levels earlier.
Avatar n tn Eat a diet high in vitamin B12 and see if this improves your serum levels. The best sources of vitamin B12 include eggs, milk, cheese, milk products, meat, fish, shellfish and poultry. Take probiotics to help increase good bacteria in the gut and make sure you have adequate stomach acid. If low, then supplement with betaine HCI with pepsin; supplements found at health food stores. Try the baking soda (sodium bicarbonate, not baking powder) test...

188508 tn?1210548106 Hi I got my b12 tested and the results was 177 & the normal range is 139 to 651. My doctor says its ok. I have all the symptoms of b12 deficency. Is it possible that being on the low range I can still have symptoms. Did anyone experience this.
Avatar f tn I agree with Laura. Get the B12 tested first. It only seems like it would help if you are low on B12. It helped me but my levels were too low.
Avatar f tn Just want to say.. I see medhelp are advertising vitamin b12 patches. I took vitamin b12 injections twice a week and it got me out of a wheelchair, now take it when needed. not sure about the patches how they work but it worth a try.
Avatar n tn does anyone know if it is possible to get pregnant while your vitamin b12 is low??
Avatar f tn I never had dandruff problems before pregnancy, but once I entered my 2nd trimester my scalp is dry and I have lots of dandruff. Anybody else have this problem and a solution? Does it go away after the baby is born?
Avatar f tn Higher dosages of up to 15,000 mcg per day are sometimes required to bring levels back up to an optimal level and to restore energy, mental function and mood balance. B12 has no known drug interactions and has never shown any adverse or toxic effects in humans, even when given in very large doses. Solgar, Sublingual Methylcobalamin is a good product. Solgar makes a good vitamin D3. I suggest trying the B12 and D and see if they help!
Avatar f tn Does alcohol deplete Iron and B12 in your body? I've been working 12 hour days for weeks now with breaks over the weekend but I'm tired ALL THE TIME despite getting a good 8 hours sleep! It's winter here in Oz and maybe I just need to hibernate :) Can anyone recommend some excellent instantaeous iron and B12 products? (I've tried Barocca tablets in the morning but I don't think they are making a difference.
1932415 tn?1325918449 Vitamin B2, Vitamin B6, Vitamin B12, Folic Acid, Vitamin C, Magnesium and Zinc. Out of these deficiency states vitamin B12 and magnesium are suspect. Vitamin B12 is needed to maintain the myelin sheath to protect the nerves and magnesium is needed for proper nerve transmission. Based on your symptoms, i would lean towards magnesium deficiency (stress is also a major cause of magnesium deficiency).
