    You're the first person to explain how to properly align the stopper with the markings on the syringe. Extremely helpful tutorial. After watching this, I gave myself my first B12 injection and everything went perfectly. Thank you!

    If you have B12 symptoms but your first test back normal or low, get these additional tests:
    1. The Full Blood Count (or FBC) but remember only around 60% of patients with a B12 deficiency will have enlarged red blood cells (macrocytosis). Another problem with relying on the MCV to indicate a B12 Deficiency is that if the patient also has an iron deficiency that deficiency will lead to a reduction in the MCV - an iron deficiency and a B12 deficiency will in effect cancel out each deficiency’s effect on the size of the red blood cell
    2. Serum Holotranscobalamin (HoloTC) - The ‘Active’ B12 Test
    3. Plasma Methylmalonic Acid (MMA)
    4. Plasma Total Homocysteine (tHcy)
    5. Red Blood Cell Folate (RBC folate) and Serum Folate
    KEEP IN MIND with Folate test: The current test does not distinguish between the active and inactive forms of B12 and so if a patient is deficient in folic acid, he or she will not be converting the inactive forms of B12 into the active forms. The result will be that the patient’s B12 status will show normal or high, but very little of this B12 will be in the active form.
    If the patient has been supplementing using folic acid tablets (as pregnant women are advised to do) then the increase in folic acid will prevent the red blood cells from becoming enlarged (megaloblastic) as discussed above. Therefore, high folic acid levels mean that one of the indicators of low B12 (enlarged red blood cells) will not be present when doctors interpret the results of any full blood count.Also, low level of folic acid has the surprising effect of increasing the amount of B12 loss in urine. The lower the patient’s folic acid, the more B12 will be excreted via urine6. And finally, a healthy level of folic acid is needed to enable the patient to convert any cyanocobalamin (a form of injectable B12) to convert to Hydroxocobalamin and then to the biologically ‘active’ forms of B12 - Methylcobalamin and Adenosylcobalamin.
    If you have been supplementing your diet using folic acid tablets you should tell your doctor this before or after you have given blood to be analyzed
    6. Ferritin (iron stores)
    Iron plays an important part in the formation of healthy red blood cells and so it is useful to ascertain the patient’s iron stores. Low iron can be the result of hemorrhaging following an accident or from heavy menstruation among other causes
    THEN, IF YOU HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED AS HAVING A B-12 YOU SHOULD THEN TEST FOR "PERNICIOUS ANEMIA"
    Tests for Pernicious Anemia
    When a patient is identified as having a deficiency in vitamin B12 the cause of that deficiency should be investigated. These are the tests used to determine whether the deficiency is caused by the patient having developed Pernicious Anemia
    1. Anti-intrinsic Factor Antibody Test
    2. Parietal Cell Antibodies
    3. Serum Gastrine
    All of the above can be found on the pernicious anaemia society .org website.
    In the end, if you suffer from neurological symptoms and you've done an extensive B12 blood work up and you were not found B-12 deficient, read up on Celiac Disease as well as Gluten Insensitivity.
    Quote: While celiac disease symptoms are often associated with the gut, they can actually go well beyond that. Some scientists now suspect that the autoimmune firestorm ignited in the gut may descend on other organs, including the brain. According to the article, around 10 percent of people with celiac disease, and possibly more, are thought to suffer neurological symptoms, ranging from headache and nerve pain, to ataxia and to epilepsy.
    Multiple Sclerosis and other types of illnesses can also be a cause.
    Best of luck.

      Thank you! I took screenshots of your comment. I have Graves’ disease and my daughter and I both have the MTHFR Gene mutation. We feel like trash all the time. Especially myself. Been getting B12 and D vitamin shots. Seems to help for a couple days but wears off. Maybe because I don’t have folic acid die to the gene mutation?

    I've been giving myself shots for the past three years and I know what I did wrong and you do too.
    1) You didn't even check whether you hit some vessel. Good luck if you shoot the shot into it :)
    2) That was really fast and would hurt for a week. The slower, the better. Just avoid shaking the needle in the muscle and go slow.
    3) Room temperature is not enough. Its better to warm up in your palm or under warm water for a while. Your body is 36 degrees Celsius, why would you inject 20 degrees compound....
    If you hit vessel, take the needle out, change it, go few cm next to the first shot.
    Yeah and I've been taking steroids disposed in oil which was way more viscous than the one used for vit B shots, so every step counts twice for me, bcz if done wrong, the pain is enormous.

    As a teacher myself, I must say, "Very well taught!" I already knew how to do the shot, but I used the internet to search dosage amounts in an attempt to recall what my neurologist recommended. That said, your video proved so informative and well recorded visually (the whole point of video that many people miss) I still learned new things that will improve my personal practice when giving myself a shot.

  • @johnjarou2357
    @johnjarou2357 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I've been giving myself these B-12 injections once a month for about 4 years; but I never knew about pulling back the syringe before you stick the needle in the vial. I've always just stuck the needle in and then drew back to get the liquid out, and I usually will have some air in there also. not knowing how to get the air out, I just went ahead and stuck the needle in my thigh, and injected. (air bubble and all). nobody really told me much on how to do it when I first started. thanks, think i'll try it your way from now on.

    Just gave my mom her B12 injection and there’s a reason she didn’t aspirate bc by aspirating there’s too much air in the bottle for this type of vial vs the dosage of B12. She had 1mL ... I aspirated it took FOREVER TO DRAW BACK...

    American Academy of Neurology:
    People with inflammatory bowel disease may also be at risk for
    developing nerve damage and other neurological problems, according to
    research that will be presented at the American Academy of Neurology’s
    59th Annual Meeting in Boston, April 28 - May 5, 2007.
    Inflammatory bowel disease includes digestive disorders such as
    ulcerative colitis and Crohn’s disease that cause swelling and/or
    bleeding in the intestines. For the study, researchers compared 103
    people with Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis to 51 people with
    other digestive disorders, such as irritable bowel syndrome, gastritis
    and chronic heartburn.
    The researchers found that those with inflammatory bowel disease were
    about four times more likely to develop neuromuscular conditions,
    including carpal tunnel syndrome and small fiber neuropathy, which
    causes pain and lack of feeling in the feet. Those with bowel disease
    were also more than six times more likely to also have a disorder called
    sensorimotor polyneuropathy, a nerve disease that can cause weakness,
    pain, and numbness. These diseases were more common in women with bowel
    disease than men.
    “Inflammatory bowel disease patients commonly suffer from several other
    medical conditions, like B12 deficiency and glucose intolerance. These
    nerve conditions we have reported are often not diagnosed by their
    primary care physicians,” said lead study author Francisco De Assis
    Gondim, MD, MSc, PhD, Professor of the Federal University of Ceará in
    Ceará, Brazil, and a member of the American Academy of Neurology.
    “People with inflammatory bowel disease who develop new symptoms, such
    as pain or numbness in the feet, should see a doctor.”

    I can't get the medicine to draw into the syringe. Not sure what I am doing wrong?

    Can I inject the liquid B12 I buy from Walmart? Or does it have to be prescribed by a Doctor? And does insurance cover the cost of injectable B12?

    Good video, but shouldn't you pull up on the needle to make sure you didn't hit a vein. I saw on another video that this should be done.

    Thanks, good video just gave myself my first shot...was terrified, did not get it all and broke the needle but I was successful at doing it. Hopefully will do better the next time.

    Have any of you bought B12 from bio sense clinical in Canada? I'm considering getting some from this company.

    In my research methylcobalamin is best absorbed. Yes?

    • @h.l.phillips3175
      @h.l.phillips3175 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. Also if you're watching to inject yourself.. please read my comment. There are many things that can go wrong. Best get a nurse or your doctor do. Only takes a minute.

    I got the b12 from my doctor..but not the needle. She said son not inject yourself as its best administered in gluteal area and you must be careful with nerves etc. So..ignoring that I asked pharmacy FIR needles so I COUKD do myself and they ALSO advised against. Despite having good knowledge etc of anatomy n what is where so to speak I'm not sure this is the cleverest suggestion or video. Plus for ppl who are going to go ahead and do it themselves anyway....please make your video more clear..open. For first timers there may be problems..air ...hit a nerve n cause all sorts if problems....you mean well but I'm not so sure this is the best way. I am with my doctor now a lot so I will ask her to do. I can administer to others but injecting suggested safest area as muscles larger. Its too awkward to do safely. But thank you. Your intentions are good and also your professionalism.
