I have so much on the forum about taking Vitamin B12. I am taking it but how much is everyone taking? If I can I would take more but scared I may be taking too much. I haven't talked to my doctor yet about it. You know doctors and vitamins sometimes. If it wasn't on a prescription pad it really won't work. Thanks for your input.
Take care of you

Hi Linda,
I asked at my pharmacy and also had them check my current meds if it was ok…
Pharmacist said take over 1000 mcg otherwise it’s not absorbing…anything less is a waste of money.
So I take 1500 mcg , 1 tablet a day.
Ask your pharmacist or doctor.

Pharmacist your best bet!
I take a b-complex. It has b1, b5, b6 and b12.
thank you guys, I knew I could count on you. I swear when I don't take it I am in more pain. I'm also taking a vitamin E. I will talk to my pharmacist. I agree that is my best bet.
Take care of you,
Linda :)
I also take 1000mcg which is one tablet per day, recommended by my neurosurgeon who did my MVD. Idea is to protect/repair the myelin sheath of nerve. Don’t know if it works but worth it to try…anything is worth a try! Hope everyone is having a good day. I’m back to work tomorrow after 5.5 weeks off…I’ll be taking it easy and see how I go. I still get SO tired after lunch and need to lie down. Luckily my work is so understanding.
