This issue came up on another forum for blood disorders. A doc told a patient that since they are getting packed red cell transfusions, they are also getting B12 and there's no need to supplement. No one really believed that this could correct a B12 insufficiency. I'm not sure if the body recycles B12 as efficiently as it does iron once the red cell dies.

Thanks again MrsD.

Hope you made it through yesterdays storms ok.
