3 injections now and my hair is not only growing, but new hair is coming in. Also noticed that my blood sugars are better. Also my balance for walking has improved a little. Lost now 20 pounds as well.

I can't tell a difference in my energy level AT ALL and as a side effect, I've developed severe, painful acne - mostly around hair follicles.

I've been taking this about ten years. No problems. My Dr. allows me to inject myself every two weeks and this seems to prevent the "slows" during the last few days before a monthly injection. I inject 1 CC every two weeks using an insulin needle.I'm not very fat so the 1/2 inch 29 gauge needle reaches my upper arm muscle with no problem.

I have an injection once/month. I definitely notice a difference in my energy levels and overall well-being. I suffered from all symptoms of b-12 anemia before taking this drug, and all symptoms have improved tremendously. I would like to take it more frequently, as I do start to feel fatigue about a week before I'm due for my shot...

Before the injections I was very sluggish, tired and forgetful. With the injections, all the above are greatly improved!

I have had only 1 injection and already I'm full of energy. I did experience some swelling for a week or so after the injection.
