I hope it stops hurting for you soon. Nothing worse than being in pain and not being able to get any relief.
I never understood how bad pain could get till my shoulder froze. Plus, it made my daily life pretty bad. I wasn't able to wash my hair, and then there was the fact that the pain, and the way I had to hold my arm was starting to cause me problems with balance and felt like it messed up my walking. When I was having that pain from the frozen shoulder, it was probably the worst pain I'd ever felt. It also felt like it was causing my MS to get worse. I was happy when the shoulder doctor told me that it wasn't caused by the MS. He said that it was a common thing for women my age (I'll be 45 in may) and that he sees 4 or 5 women a week with frozen shoulder. I could not believe how painful it was. And except for a short dosepack of oral prednisone, nothing I did for it helped until that shoulder doctor walked in with 3 syringes full of cortisone. I just found out that I'm seriously b12 deficient. (my b12 is 252. Normal is between 246 and 911. According to my doctor) I'm trying to figure out if the low b12 could have caused my shoulder issue. I still occasionally get a twinge, but now it feels like a pulled muscle. I'm just glad it only an occasional pulled muscle feeling, rather than what was going on back in december. I do not want that pain to come back, and I don't want it to happen to my other shoulder. Hopefully they can figure out something to make it stop hurting for you very soon. |
I took my first hydroxy B12 (Perque 2000mcg) last night, and before it had even fully dissolved under my tongue I was having to take frequent deep breaths. This morning I keep having to yawn to feel like my lungs are filling up properly.
So unfortunately, I guess this problem wasn't limited to the methyl B12. |
Do you get the SOB if you SWALLOW the tablet?
Swallowing delivers the B12 effectively. Maybe the sublingual is your problem. When swallowing the tablet, do so on an empty stomach with no food for 1 hr. Sublingual use is not necessary to get absorption of the B12, which is about 13mcg per 1000 mcg dose that is swallowed. |

You can swallow any B12 tablet whole...without chewing.
I'd try it that way. It will dissolve in the stomach quickly,if you take at least 4 oz of water with it. |

I'm a bit confused as to the reason why swallowing it whole would produce a difference response than chewing/dissolving, though. |
what is SOB
|
Shortness Of Breath

B12 isn't fat soluble, so it gets excreted from the body if there's too much. Maybe your problem is dehydration? I have pernicious anemia and I drink a ton of pedialyte after I get my shot to stay hydrated.
By the way, have you considered a sublingual tablet? You'd probably get more into your bloodstream but I'd really recommend hydrating after taking one. |
