He is on diflucan and probiotics, so I know it isn't yeast. It may still be yeast, but B12 is also called " the energy vitamin " . My son needed mB12 with folic, B2, and carnitine. Try giving the shots first thing in the morning. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Hi! When are you giving the shots--AM or PM? We were giving our son his after dinner and we experienced the same problem. We switched to AM and he slept through the night first time with no problems since. Regards, _____ From: [mailto: ] On Behalf Of gfcfmommy Sent: Tuesday, March 24, 2009 9:23 AM Subject: Do mB12 shots +Folinic acid mean night waking? Hi, I just started my on on mB12 shots every three days, with folinic acid in place weeks before the shots.I gave the shots at noon each time, and he was up at 4am after both days - I am tired!!!! Has this happened to anyone else? He is on diflucan and probiotics, so I know it isn't yeast. Should I transition from folinic to folic acid? He's due for another shot today, but I am going to wait until dinnertime to give it. Thanks, Susi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 My son did this for the first 10-12 weeks after starting the shots. He was up from 2am to 6am every night. Then one day it just stopped. It was horrible for us but worth the benefits. It's a common side effect when beginning MB12. Ride it out!! Kerrie In a message dated 3/24/2009 9:38:43 A.M.

Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 Dana - how can it still be yeast? Susi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 24, 2009 Report Share Posted March 24, 2009 I'm not Dana, but I also was going to say that you can't rule our yeast. My son was on Diflucan and probiotics and improved, but when we went on SCD son afterward he had HUGE yeast die-offs. Yeast (and other bad microbes) can be extremely hardy beasts and can be very hard to get under control. Diflucan will probably kill some of it, but yeast can also adapt and develop resistance to these things (my son also used to take Nystatin). I'm not saying this is necessarily yeast- I bet it's more general detox- but you can't rule out yeast too quickly. -Sierra http://grainfreefoodie.blogspot.com/ > > Dana - how can it still be yeast?

Guest guest Posted March 25, 2009 Report Share Posted March 25, 2009 > > Dana - how can it still be yeast? Your yeast protocol might not be sufficiently aggressive to eliminate all the yeast overgrowth caused by the B12/folic. B12/folic caused a LOT of yeast here, especially at first.
