Default pernicious anemia

does anybody out there have pernicious anemia and possibly taking metformin. I was diagnosed over a year ago and I still suffer shortness of breath and some other symptoms. I am also diabetic and take metformin which i read might interfer with b12 intake.

Default I do believe I had read something about that--

--and people with diabetes tend to lose vitamins/minerals through urine faster than "normals" anyway.

You should come take a look at both our Peripheral Neuropathy and Vitamin/Mineral forums, particularly the B12 threads:
