Re: Repost at suggestion of NTH mods

Margery, thanks..can you elaborate? I have had B12 results (actually high on

several measures that would indicate a polycythemia vera) at both ends of the

scale..I think my last assessment was below the 500 " ideal " cited by the " Could

It Be B12 " author. IOW, serum B12 hasn't made a difference...still have had

high H/H with low or low normal ferritin.

infection and pneumonia!!! (could also have contributed to my RT3 of 261). I

have not trimmed this post deliberately so as to refresh/bump. I have ordered

the Bluebonnet from Amazon, but if memory serves me correctly, it is 27 mg..Are

you saying milligrams? or micrograms? If milligrams, that would be 8 tabs

daily?

Am taking " Country Life " 18 mg daily (can't remember the form, it's an older

supplement) right now until my BlueBonnet arrives....can't be sure it's related,

but getting a little irritable/agitated (again, could have secondary

polycythemia)on..does the form seem to make a lot of difference? has anyone else

experienced this phenomenon?
