Hello Mrs.D!
Finally, after 9 months of severe symptoms and mis-diagnoses? I 'officially' been told that I meet all the criteria for pernicious anemia. Had multiple tests, 24 hr urine; 9 tubes of blood. Anyway, now I know what I have. Former B12 level of 68 is now over 1000 and doc just said, "keep on doing what you are doing"... 2000 mg jarrow methyl b12 and a typical multiple vitamin/mineral combo. My questions is that the literature I've been reading today about p.a. seems to be saying that I need to be careful not to take too much folate as it negates the b12. Any truth in that? I had planned on ordering the jarrow b right but it has a lot of folate. Can you make any sense of our my muddled mind and query? As always, I appreciate your knowledge and thoughtfulness so very much. Nancy
