When nerves are damaged from a B12 deficiency, and they encounter B12, it's not necessarily going to pleasant.
As nerves heal, they can HURT. Go to the peripheral neuropathy forum here and talk to those guys about the process of healing peripheral nerves. Nerve sensations can be anywhere from paralyzed (can't feel anything) to hypersensitive (nerves overstimulated) to numbness to pain, etc.
So perhaps the "pain" or headache you felt was simply the brain responding to having something it needs.

Hi Annie!
I have been getting B12 injections for several years now. My PCP checks all my levels regularly. My B12 will go up and we will skip a month or two and it will drop. At last check it was in the middle of the range. I really do not think this headache was related to my B12 levels as it was more that a month since my last injection and I know my level is ok at the moment, but some others might be related. Definitely something to think about and pay closer attention to. I will check out the peripheral neuropathy forum, thanks for the tip.
