B-12 shot hurts like HE**!!! What other form can I give him?

[Guest guest]

I have been giving my son Methyl B-12 injections at 2500 mcg for about

6 mos. Previously, he was on 1250 mcg for about 1 year. He has been

complaining that it really hurts alot lately. I started using LMX

cream, but he still complains that it is really hurting. Today, he

refused the shot completely, so I decided to inject myself. OUCH!!! I

feel like the worst mom ever! It stings soooo bad. What other forms

are there? Brands? I can't continue to put him in pain.

Thanks,

Annie
