Confused Hello everyone

So I've been raking my brain day in and day out trying to find an online community for my problem. I have recently been diognosed with a B12 defiency and I have so many questions and concerns. The dr who gave me the test doesn't seem to know much about it and I don't feel she is treating me correctly. She feels that by taking the vitamine orally should be enough. But after my reading about this and found that people with this problem start off with shots on a weekly or bi weekly basis. I have had two shots now but only after asking her for them. My last appointment with her I told her I was still feeling weak and shakey and she said that she doesn't think that the b12 could cause shaking and that I should see a therapist because there could be anxiety problems!!! OMG I was so angry when I left her office! I went home and just to make sure I wasn't reading the symptoms wrong, I looked it up again... and there it was, 4th symptom on the list... tremors!!! I wanted to call her and scream at her. But instead I decided that she isn't the dr who should be treating me... so I am calling a hemotologist on Monday... I hope that is the specialist I need to talk to.

I am open to suggestions on specialists? is a hemotologist the right dr to see? What are some of the treatments you are all getting??? and some symptoms?

here are some of mine:

sensitive to anxiety (but only when something causes it)
edgy
shakey
weak muscles
heavy eyes
tired
dizzy
crazy discriptive dreams
foggy
memory problems
sometimes having trouble talking, can't think of the right thing to say

I am sure there are more, but I can't think of it.

Ok so thats me so far.
