basic questions about b12 and mag

July 14, 2001

Hi , I have some pretty basic questions regarding B12 and magnersium

injections.

My main CFS symptom up to about a year ago was a very foggy head (felt

like I had a few bricks and a blanket stuffed into my head) - I had lots of

trouble reading (due to fatigue around my eye muscles) but could think quite

clearly. Also- big sleep problems- unrefreshing sleep. After liver detox

program (whey, Ultra-clear, anti-oxidents etc) my sleep got much worse and

now I'm really fatigued and have insomnia. (Just thought I'd say that

because everyone seems to have different symptoms).

I'm trying some b12 injections at the moment...first of all

hydroxocobalamin, which didn't do very much...but then my doc tried

methylcobalamin which seems to have made a bit of difference. It knocks me

into sleep but the muscles in my head and around my eyes are very thick and

heavy during during the day and it's really difficult to concentrate. Does

anyone else have these symptoms? Do you know why it does this?

I don't take magnesium by injection...why is mag usually coupled with B12 in

injections? What does it do for those of you that take it?

thanks,

Emma
