I was reading the vitamins sticky at the top and saw B12 and so I searched it and I realized that I have a lot of symptoms of B12 deficiency, so I don't know if I have it or not, so should I go and get the pills of B12 or talk to my doctor about it?

You can hardly overdose on B12. B12 is a water soluble vitamin, which is one factor that makes it harder for you to overdose on it, so there should be no harm in supplementing B12. I take a multivitamin that's got B12 in too, and plenty of other stuff. It's the least I can do to support my healing.

Get some B-12 vitamins. A 2500 mcgs B-12 dose daily would be a good start. Get the sub-lingual type. You can let them dissolve in your mouth or swallow them.

Sounds like they are giving you the hep B and other STD shots. I'm not a strong supporter of vaccines. The side-effects and other risks vs the risk of getting the disease don't balance out for me. According to a Forbes article, there are reports that 60,000 have died from MMR vaccines over the years.

God designed my immune system to be tested and strengthened by normal exposures. The 'hybrid' exposures do not excite me.

Thanks for the info on the b12

And I have no idea what shots they are giving me because like I said that I haven't had one in a couple of years and usually dread going, I don't know why but when ever someone talks about needles I feel like I'm going to be sick, but that has gotten better over the last couple of years

I don't like needles either. I cringe when they show flu shots being given on TV. But, I know that they are needed like last week when I had two moles removed. I appreciate the fine needle with anesthetic compared to the thought of a scalpel cutting a mole from my skin. I just don't look the direction of the person handling the needle.

Yeah but I have no idea, but I always get pale and lightheaded after needles... I hate health class because of this, almost passes out twice in school and one time I was in English class and we were talking about a book that had something to do with a needle and I almost passed out

Hey man I feel for you. I have had a concussion since my junior year. I am now graduated, but I still feel the effects of PCS. I know how you feel. Senior year sucked for me. I didn't have a normal senior year. Being in the classroom setting definitely made me feel crummy. However, I am getting better. Even though it has felt like a long time, I know that I will be healed. I am not saying that your concussion will last as long as mine. I am just saying that I support you because I know how bad it must feel to be in school. I hope things will get better for you soon.
