Sorry, I didn't mean to scare you!!! Do you take the sublingual methylcobalamin B12? If not, please try it. The shots were doing squat for my levels. The sublingual tablets made my B12 go up and symptoms go down!
Cancer is not the only reason why someone would have a B12 deficiency!!! In fact, it's probably way down on the list. A lack of stomach acid and celiac disease are much more common.

Well - I prob have Coeliac so I hope this is the reason ! I would like a repeat CT Scan done. It has been two years since my original. Do you think that would be a good idea to ask the Neuro when I see him ? I mean - if its a thymoma it would be larger in two years ?

all we said was that physicians should keep in mind that patients may have rare diseases, rare presentations of rare disease and unusual/unexpected response to treatment. and that a good physician patient-relationship based on mutual trust and respect, and the understanding that not everything is covered by our text books and journals is essential. but everyone knows that!!!

And amen to that. We can only hope our Drs 'think outside the square' and are prepared to trust their own judgement and eyes before the textbooks they have crammed during study.
