I wanted to report back on my neuropathy symptoms. I have since learned that I have pernicious anemia which is why I have neuropathy. I am administering 3ml shots of methylcobalamin daily and the symptoms have started to abate. I still have it but it isn't the unbelievable burning pain I was having.

I learned this because I went on vacation and while gone, I was wearing b12 patches. When I returned, my feet were on fire. I went to a clinic and received a b12 injection. I went the next day and asked for another one. The nurse there was willing to give it to me but stated that I couldn't get more than 2 in a week. After much study and my symptoms of light headedness, extremely cold hands and feet, cold intolerance (I live in Texas and its 90 degrees and I'm wearing a sweatshirt in the house), unexplained weight loss (I've lost 20 lbs in year), I researched and found a site in the UK that explained what my symptoms could be stemming from. I do have gastric issues and do not retain b12 through diet or by mouth with tablets.

I am continuing to wear the X39 patch because I have encountered many other benefits, better sleep, the crepey skin on my arms is gone etc, but it hasn't benefitted me like daily small dose b12 shots. I purchased shots at a b12 store and am converting them from 1MG dose shots into 3 smaller dose shots of 3ml. I will report back when I have been doing this for 90 days as that is how long it takes for red blood cells to regenerate.
