Pernicious anaemia is an autoimmune disease arising from antibodies which recognise parietal cells and/or Intrinsic Factor. It leads to impaired absorption of cobalamin/Vitamin B12 which can lead to neuropathic pain and other neurological signs.
Treatment often involves replenishment of cobalamin either orally or by injection
