Hi,

You won the Nurse Practitioner lottery!
I am sooooo happy!

She has two tests for B12. She cannot give you the shot until she knows how much you need. The good news is that it washes out of our bodies quickly like Vit C does so it is ok to take a lot. The bad news is that you usually have to keep it up.
Lack of B12 can have neurological ramifications so this is good that she is checking.
