Yeah, my guy, (who interestingly, has been hanging out in the tropics all winter) keeps saying to me over Skype, "you need some vitamin B....and let's get you one of those sun lamps". It's amazing when we find ourselves feeling certain ways, reacting to things the way we dont usually, or hunkering down into a state that isn't "us". I hate it. I just got out of one of those months. movin' down the roads last blog post..Piano lessons

How wonderful that you and your doctor found the problem and fixed it. I fear there's no help for me. I am just truly nuts. *sigh* Smart Mouth Broads last blog post..SPRING HAS SPRUNG

I also had good luck with B-12…it made me feel livlier. Have you read “When Your Body Gets the Blues”…it’s short and has good information about the importance of all the B vitamins. Glad you’re feeling better.

Midlife Slices and Lori,

It really took about 4 weeks before I began to notice a difference. I’ve read that you can take B-12 orally as well, but I’m not sure how a B-complex vitamin works and if it has enough of the specific B-12 to boost levels if they’re low. Apparently it can cause long-term mental issues and damage to the spine and nervous system. It also mimics the symptoms of classical depression and fatigue.

Not sure if this helps you, but I’m wishing you all the best!!

Hugs,
Tricia

This is very interesting. I need to look into this. I am wondering if the shots are much better then the pills? I used to take vit B complex but didn't see any changes so stopped. So do you have noticable changes? Please let me know if this really helps and continues to do so! Loris last blog post..Star Light, Star Bright

Glad to know you're feeling better. And you're gutsy to take those shots yourself. Hilarys last blog post..True Grits

SO WEIRD! My mother just noticed my lack of energy and my sour disposition and handed me a baggie of B vitamins last week! I've been carrying it around in my purse for the last week, thinking she was under the influence of some kind of placebo effect, but as soon as I got through your first paragraph I dug those suckers out and took one. I hope it works for me too! HeatherPrides last blog post..Fat Girls Club, Week Two: Roly Poly Right Along

You’re lucky that your vitamin deficiency was diagnosed. I’ve heard of cases where doctors didn’t do the obvious thing – order a full blood work – and fixable conditions such as this remained undetected.
