Re: Allergic Reaction to B12

[Guest guest]

I'm 22 years out, and have been taking B12 injections since 1989. I use to get

hives on my hips, and lower stomach when I'd get the injections. The would go

away after itching for about an hour, and I wouldn't have any other problems

after that. I talked to my PCP about it, and he'd never heard of any such thing

either.

Are you receiving any other type of injection with the B12. I receive my

hormones, along with the B12. I had to have them seperated for awhile due to

the hives, but have seemed to outgrown the problem, and causing hard knots in my

hips. What was the dosage? Maybe you were given too much at one time, or as

already mentioned, there was something else in the B12 that caused the reaction.

B12 will definetly make you feel better, and is a necessity for a WLS patient.
