B12 Shots At Home

My surgeon to be, called and said my B12 was low and I needed to get monthly shots.

I am okay with self injecting, but wanted to know if others felt better afterwards. How long before you noticed a difference?

    I'm getting b-12 injections with lipotronics. Anyone else trying this? So far I really like them. I've had 2 so far- one per week

Sometimes I'll notice later in the day, sometimes it'll take a day or two. It varies for me. Generally though, I always feel a "boost" from them.

Was told I was extemely low and they just put me on 1000 mg a day pill. I have not seen a difference in the way I feel.

Pills will take a bit longer to kick in than the shots will.

Just got my first B12 shot today. They are every other week for three months. Wonder how long before I feel more energy? Soon I hope

I can usually tell about 3 hours after I have had a B12 shot,. everyone is different. I can tell a huge difference after 24 hours

Best of luck to you.

I've had those before......wonderful little things lol....

I inject myself monthly with b12. I feel the boost instantly. Wish it were weekly though.

How ca you get them injected at home? I'd like that!

The dr can write a script for B12. It's very easy to inject.

And they give you the needles to do so? I'm going to ask my surgeon!!! :)
