@celia16 I am on a vitamin that my doctor prescribed me. I take it once a week for vitamin D but I am currently not taking B12 which I should because it’s very low. I remember my doctor tell me what they wanted it to be at and mine was like not even close. I don’t know if she said it was 20 or in the 200s I forget it was a while ago but after hearing everybody’s experience with neuropathy and would be 12 and stuff on here, I am going to start taking it

@chrissywashere , my doctor says it’s crucial to get the B12 test before you start taking it, since that skew the results. Also, it’s not uncommon for a person to have absorption problems and not absorb capsules, so sublingual (dissolved under the tongue) or injections are required. Your doctor can prescribe which might be best for your situation. Vit D deficiency can also cause muscle issues.
