It was on a thread in the Peripheral Neuropathy forum... about getting Methylcobalamin, which I guess is very expensive in Australia...

A poster wrote that the hydroxy was at the chemist and available without prescription. Look in the Peripheral Neuropathy forum...

I should get the link for you...

we can get Hydroxocobalamin in injection form from any chemist with or without a doctors script.
