Default Side effects of B-12????

Hi.

I was just on the phone with a friend who had another person on another line. So we were doing a 3 way phone conversation. My friend Steven asked me about Methyl B-12. He knows why I take this and how it helped me.

His friend's doctor put her on it because she had a serious B-12 deficiency and he told her. "you must take B-12 or you'll get neuropathy".

She has been on 2000 of the B-12. Naturally I asked her "what kind". She said "B-12". I said "no, look at the bottle and see if it says Cyanocobalimin"

She could not find it and I said "look for a BIG word starting with the letters CYANO

She then found it. So she is definitely taking 2000 sublingually of the cyano

I then explained how b-12 works in the body. She said "well, my last B-12 test was very high" But I am now nervous, anxious, with heart palpitations".

I said 'you have this because of B-12??" She said "yeah". But her doctor told her it was mostly in her mind and that she should NOT stop taking it. He told her if she stops taking it she would get neuropathic pain.

I then asked her about her caffeine intake and she admitted that she does drink things with caffeine. I said 'why not do an experiment". why not take some green tea (without caffeine), don't use caffeine for a week, and half your b-12 intake".

She's been on 2000 of the cyano version.

She thought this might be a good idea. So she's going to go for it.

I asked her about the stress in her life. She said "who doesn't have stress".

She's 57 years old and I don't think she's on anything else.

So my question is "Can a person taking 2000 of cyanocobalimin have heart palpitations and anxiousness that is related to this item?

She did admit she's a nervous person. She takes melatonin at night to sleep.

Any ideas

thanks much

Melody
