If you want rapid relief from symptoms kindly take vitB12 injections once daily for 5 days then weekly once for 4 weeks, then monthly for 1 year . By tablets it takes time to reduce symptoms. If you have B12 report you can send me . Based on that severity of symptoms will be there

There are many symptoms which person can experience while having vit B12 deficiency. Most common are general weakness , anaemia,tiredness , fatigue , tingling & numbness of fingers or toes , perepheral neuropathy , sometimes poor concentration . In severe deficiencies can affect brain functions also Regarding medication , most of the time it does improve with oral tablet due to lack of intrinsic factor in the intestine which helps in its absorption & this is the reason also for the deficiency also.

Vit B 12 is helpful to provide oxygen and nourishment to your organs and muscles ... it even helps to send energy to brain ...so deficiency of Vit B12 can lead if fatigue , hair loss , weakness , anxiety , low memory and many other issues .... I think u should change Nuhenz and start something else which should have Vit D also in it . Can u share your last report of Vit B 12 and since how long are you taking Nuhenz .
