I am getting my vitB injections soon, but have never given myself a shot OR had anyone show me how.

Is this something easy to figure out?
I am probably going to get on the Vitb methyl tabs but am going to try the shots since my doctor seems very trusting in me. So I want to show that I'm listening to him... at least somewhat. And keep him listening to me.

I am scared I won't be able to do this.

Do you mean B12 injections?

You can do oral as effectively. Most injections are cyano, unless you special order the Methylcobalamin.

If your body cannot convert it properly, cyano won't work.

Taking oral daily is as effective, and much cheaper and has studies to back that up.

A new article on this:
from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21671542

This article is from a medical journal-- American Family Physician. Their website BTW goes into more detail.
This article is very new, but this Medical group has been publishing B12 information since 2003 on the web:
http://www.aafp.org/afp/2003/0301/p979.html

Why would you put yourself thru an invasive procedure when it is not necessary?

If I would you I'd start at 5mg daily on an empty stomach...methylcobalamin for 3 months. When you reach 1000 in test results or higher (most people reach higher) you can back down to
1000mcg (1mg) daily or just take the 5mg twice a week.
Pennies a day, no needles, no risk of infection or muscle damage, easy.

Give your doctor these two links, written by doctors for doctors to
ease his mind.

Sure you can! I am alergic to bee stings and red ant bites. I have an auto injector. If I can do it so can you. Don't be afraid to try. Your doctor will show you how. I also have a friend who took fertality injections and did them herself too. Good luck be fearless! ginnie
