Hi
I have pernicious anemia and have been having B12 injections and have now been told I have to have 6 x 1 mg intramuscular injections over next 2 weeks, and then another in 3 weeks and then 3 monthly.
Does anyone have experience of this?
I would be really grateful to hear of anyone else's experiences.
I am worrying because I am so low in B12 and I Googled too, and I am now worried that I may get severe problems related to it, as I read that a person is 3 x more likely to get stomach cancer if they have pernicious anemia! :weep: :lac:
