Thanks Mrs D
I do tend to watch the things that I eat.
2 days meat, 2 days fish, 3 days vegetarian which includes eggs and cheese.
I very rarely eat anything out of a tin can,and rarely anything frozen.
Maybe I should cut meat out altogether?

Before cutting out meat, you need to get your B12 measured.
It should be at 400pg/ml or above. Low B12 can affect the eyes.
Lab ranges have not been changed to reflect the new decade old suggestion of 400pg/ml as the lowest acceptable level. So get your test results in numbers if you decide to have this test.

Hello MrsD

I wish I knew what you are talking about. What is my B12?
Whatever it is I have never heard of it, and I wonder if I can get it done on the NHS

Vitamin B12 is a critical nutrient that may become low if you
have low stomach acid, failure of intrinsic factor in the stomach,
or don't eat enough animal sourced foods.

It is essential for many functions in the body, especially the nervous system and formation of red blood cells.

A blood test for B12 will show if you are low or not.

Here is a very good video to watch:

It is long but you need to watch it all.

This is my B12 information thread with all you need to know:
