It is rather difficult obtaining sub-lingual methyl-cobalamin in Australia. Luckilly we are members of Life Extension Foundation so can purchase what we need on line and have it sent to us here.

I now have the 5mg sublinguals, but will wait to begin taking them I think untill after I see the GP in a further 2 weeks.

I have injected IM B12 and each time I seem to have had a reaction to it. I injected every second day (that is 3 times in one week on alternative days) and each time I felt markedly worse after each shot. Freezing cold shivers, more aches and pains, sore tongue, bowel problems etc.......

Maybe this is a case of you got to get worse before you get better? I wonder! I will give myself another shot tonight.... and try and be a patient patient! hahahah I want to use up the small store of injections I have in my refrigerator before commencing the daily sublinguals.

Q.

Instructions on the bottle of sunlinguals say to take 1 - 8 per day!!!!
then tell you
DO NOT EXCEED RECOMMENDED DOSE!

Ok these are 5 mg....... how much of this sublingual actually becomes available to my body and how much will be excreted? any suggestions?

Thanks again..........
