Advice & Tips
I definitely think the B-12 injection is worth the effort. The county nurse came to the house once a month for a year or so, but that didn't seem to be enough. The family practice doctor recommended every other week and that seemed to give me the energy I needed. I am able to keep going during the day; before this I spent most of the day resting and sleeping. Just worn out. I am a lot better now.

Advice & Tips
I was really pleased to have more energy in the latter part of the day. (I receeived the shot at 2 p.m.) kept me alert and thinking properly through the supper hour.

Advice & Tips
For me, it seems to really work on sensitive symptoms and it looks like to have a benefit in overall health: I feel like having the best time of my life! For the first time in my life it seems that the numbness and tingling that I had since I was 15 years old are disapearing. Vitamin B12 doesn´t have any side effects, it just have benefits because its almost impossible to have a overdose of it! So if you have MS and sensitive issues, why don't you give a try on B12 injections? It's a win-win :)

Advice & Tips
I stopped taking it when I started on the Copaxone, my Dr. sure if there would be a conflict between the B-12, LDN, also gama globulin shots. I felt great on those but stopped when I let the Neuro talk me into trying the Copaxone. I started up on the B-12 again 2 mo. after stopping the Coppaxone. Now I think I have developed an ammunity to it so I decided to stop for a few months to see what happens.because the fatigue has hit pretty hard again about 4 months ago.

Hated giving myself shots. Blood tests are showing my levels are staying in the normal range, so we are just watching them to make sure they don't drop again.

Advice & Tips
I am currently on a break from the B12 shots so we can see if I need to keep taking them. After my next blood test we will see if my levels are dropping and if they aren't I will be able to stop this treatment and just follow up with yearly blood tests.

Advice & Tips
I haven't noticed a difference but my blood test show my level is higher. I have to stop taking it for 3 months and get tested again to see if it has really made a change.
