Hi

>I haven't noticed any tingling or numbness in my hands or feet .

>I've been on B12 for almost 5 weeks now and I haven't noticed any

>difference. I haven't even mentioned my ears feeling like they are full of

>cotton to my own doctor because I am waiting to go see her after I get my

>B12 checked again.

>Another thing I noticed is the more tired I get the crankier I become

>my moods are so bad

Take Care
