"B12 injectons stopped"

About: NHS South Sefton CCG

(as the patient),

For the last 8 years I have been having b12 injections every 8 weeks as a blood test showed that after 8 weeks my levels were very low. Suddenly I am told that there never was a blood test that showed that and my injection s are to be every 12 weeks. 12 weeks since last injection and my drs have suspended b12 injections and I am left feeling drained and mentally confused and forgetful.

Out of desperation I ordered the b12 needles, srynges swabs etc from a german pharmaceutical company. With some trepidation and after a lot of research I self administered my own b12.  From now on it frees me from the constant tiredness between weeks 8 to 12. I will not bother the drs again but it will be interesting to see how long it is before they notice I have stopped their injections.
