Hi Buttons,
Subacute Combined Systems Disease aka: Subacute Combined Degeneration
is a demylenating disease that very much mimics ms.

It is a complication of chronic b12 deficiency. It causes the spinal cord to demlyenate in two locations corticospinal tract and pyrimidical tract.

but since I don't have those other elevated test results, and no anemia,
I wonder if I have a true b12 deficiency.

You feel that the shots of b12 are what has helped you?

I'm hardly getting any relief for my situation.

I was supposed to take b1, b6 folic acid, SAME & vit E but I got horrible alll day pains in my stomach, and couldn't figure which vitamin was causing it.
and was told to discontinue them. I do sometimes take them just because.

I never eat or drink those artificial sweetners (and it show! ha ha) I could never stand the after taste.

I've had several lyme tests including two spinal taps, one got sent to the lab in california that specialized in lyme, so I think that's been ruled out.
thanks for listening,
laura
