Has anyone gone for Vit B 12 shots ?

I have been giving myself a shot for about two years now.  I just gave myself one today. The first b 12 shot I got was at the doctors office. She said we will have you come in and one of the nurses will show you how to give yourself it. It is pointless to come in every month just for that. (i have doc appointments usually every three months).  The nurse showed me how to do it in about 30 min. It is easy and quick but shots don't bug me much, never have. I get the wipes, sharps container, needle, and medicine at walgreens. My doc called in a scrip for each.  I give it in my stomach. It is easiest there.

The bad news. I haven't noticed a difference. I'm fatigued like your daughter. This is my number one problem with uc. Hopefully this helps her alittle.

I've been getting b12 shots on and off for years, and they definitely make a difference for me. I actually can tell when it's time to go and get "topped up" because I start feeling lethargic and, well to be honest, depressed and a little crazy. Within 1-3 shots I'm feeling a lot better.

As a side note, I usually end up getting iron infusions around the same time. But I feel a different reaction to getting my iron stores boosted to my b12.

Thanks everyone.

mudua, I'll look into that. Thanks.
