B12

spock

i am unable to process vitamin b12, this results in many different problems.

i have trouble with my word retrieval causing me some anxiety when in conversation.

i can become fatigued at times.

i have a tingling in my left arm and leg (nerve damage).

my feet feel as if they are burning, this makes walking uncomfortable.

my doctor has been giving me b12 injections for almost a year now but tells my that neurological damage will most likely not mend, the best i can hope for is it shouldn't get any worse.

anyone else having trouble wit b12 deficientcy, if so how are you coping.

respect

  • I have recently been diagnosed with Aspergers at the age of 35 and I have had pernicious anaemia since I was 20. I used to have B12 injections every 2 - 3 months but this was then changed to monthly. I suffer a lot with exhaustion and brain fog etc, and I also have some tingling in my left arm and leg. To be honest I don't know how much of my fatigue etc is caused by the anaemia or by the Aspergers. With my new found knowledge about my Aspergers I am trying to work on ways to feel less anxious and hopefully improve my energy levels. I don't know if it is a physical or psychological problem that is having the most effect! 

    Any othr Aspies who also have Pernicous Anaemia?Cool
