I took this for weight loss and I took it for two days and it made me extremely tired and super cranky. needless to say I stopped talking it. I slept for almost 24 hours straight. so much for a energy booster.

I started taking B-12 when I had a bitter burning sensation on my tongue. After about a week it went away and has stayed away. I tried discontinuing the one pill a day but the burning sensation came back so I resurmed taking it. I take 1000 mcg and just get the store brand (CVS) or whatever is on sale.

I can feel a big difference when I do not take the B 12 Sublingual vitamin. I am not as alert when I wake up and during the day. One thing that I do peridically for constipation is use colon tablet until I am regular. I also notice more energy while taken it. I usually do not exceed the recommended daily allowance. I just don't like the way it covers my teeth sometimes

My MD.sent me to a hospital with a nuclear medicine testing. I took one pill and collected my urine for 24 hrs. a few days later results, severely deficient. Approximatly 6 weeks after taking the injs. I was in the shower washing my hair and thought "Oh my, its not an effort to raise my hands over my head to wash my hair" Over the next few months the leg tingling, ear ring, and other symptoms were gone. I choose to give myself the injections due to my work schedule, I'm a flight attendant and my hours vary monthly. B12 inj worked for me. Read More Read Less

I started taking B12 for my fatigue and mony of it's other well known benefits. I love it!! I take it at night, before bed though because vitamins tend to make my stomach upset. I really does give me a boost in energy and I just feel better!

I've been taking large dosages of B complex. A chemical blood profile showed that the normal amount (number) should be 2. However, my number was 14. Could that amount cause numbness, tingling, or leg pain?

B 12 has increased my mental well being as well as increased my energy. However it makes me very consitpated and irritates my stomach. I would like to keep taking the oral B12, is there anything I could do to counter act these side effects?
