Has anyone heard of B12 Nascobal



Recommended Posts

I was wondering if any of you lap-banders are Vitamin B12 deficient? Apparently I am, so they are going to try me on a new nasal B12 inhaler called Nascobal...has anyone tried it? Thanks for any information you can offer!!!

I was told by my NUT to start B12 right away. I do not think I am deficient, but I take supplements that I buy from GNC. It will help with your energy level also. I can tell when I forget to take mine. Let me know how it goes.

I've never taken the nasal spray but I do take B12 everyday. It's a Gummy so I think of it as a treat. And I can tell the difference with taking it and not taking it. It gives me lots more energy.

Never had nasal spray but I take Vitamin B12 sublingual daily. Sublingual is the easiest form as you just place it under your tongue and the vitamin directly absorbed into the blood stream. I buy my sublingual from Vita4Life since they offer b12 in methylcobalamin, which is the best form of b12 for the body to absorb the vitamin.

I have taken B12 from the start, I buy the chewable from GNC. so far I feel it's working, I do notice a difference in my energy level if I forget it...

I am using Nascobal and I do not find it anymore effective then the sublinguals that I used to get so when my 90 day supply is up, I'm going to save myself the huge copay and just go with the sublinguals.

I haven't had my B12 levels checked in several months so I don't know. I have a checkup scheduled with my primary care provider later this month though and he's planning to check all of those macronutrient levels then along with some other labs. I'm thinking I may need a blood transfusion by the time they get drawing blood this time with all he has planned to obtain!lol

I use the Nascobal, it seems to work fine I haven't used any other forms than the nasal spray. It costs me $25/month for the nascobal and all of my other Vitamins through the company. and it gets delivered to me. Thought it was a pretty good offer.

I was taking B12 shots until recently. My doctor switched me to the nasal spray. I have not had blood work yet to see how it works. I do like it better than shots. I also get the combo of Vitamins Iron Calcium and B12. My runs $15 a month

I was hoping to get the $25 deal also, but they ended up not taking either of my insurances so I switched to the mail order pharmacy for the B-12 and it is $50 for 3 month supply. The other Vitamins I get from Bariatric Advantage

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
