Have used for fatigue years ago and made no difference, since learnt there is no real benefit if your B12 and MMA is in range.

I will resurrect this thread instead of starting another. How low is low for B12? 

I have always ignored it on blood tests as it is always green but I have only just realised that it is barely within range at 75 pmol.  I take 1000mcg a day in tablet form and it still doesn't move it up so I guess I have absorption issues. 

Where is the best place to get B12 injections?

I've had  large part of my intestines removed, and found out after 16 years that it was the part which absorbs B12. So i've had pretty much zero b12 for a decade and a half... 

The NHS weren't really much use and prescribed me the absolute minimum, i did some research and apart from perhaps unbalancing some of my other levels there isn't too much sides so I had a friend ship some from Spain as you can get it over the counter there.

I did 2ml ED for 7 days and then 2ml E2D for 10 days, and now I do 2ml every month.

I certainly feel a lot better, but i think i had a lot more room for improvement due to my seriously low levels.

My understanding is that there is no real evidence that is more effective (in terms of absorption rates) than oral administration of B12
