Well I am a dork and a half.  I didnt realize until a couple of days ago that I had forgot to take my b12 shot last month.  I went to give myself my shot this last weekend and said "hey why do I still have 3 needles left?  Shouldnt there just be 2 more shots?"  No wonder I was having the tingling in my legs, I was low on B.  The tingling is completely gone now and Dr Kirk even put me on Metenex to help me get more B vitaimins into my blood.  This is a lesson to all of you...DONT FORGET YOUR SHOTS.  Your body damned sure wont forget.

Well, I'm SO GLAD it wasn't something more than momentary forgetfulness. Aren't you a bit young for that? ;)
Rejoicing,
Mary

mary in my defense (or is it in my admittal?) I am male.  We forget the simplistic things but we can tell you the passing percentage of Brett Favre in his 1993 season.

Ummm?????  Question????  Tingling in legs = lack of B12?

I have been having the tingling for about a month or so now...... I didnt do my shot last month like I should have I forgot.. I know poor excuse... is this really the reason behind the tingle?

Funny thing is I am so honored to have you call me stupid Kim, LMAO.


And Sassy yes I was having like a tingling numbness in my shins.  Is that what you are having?

No mine is my whole leg!!!! Mine is probably due to the back issues and the nerves.  But I will say that the last week since I took my shot I havent really noticed it or I am getting used to it.

I am so happy you figured it out!  Glad it was something simple ot fix.

What size needle do you use for the B-12?  Is it an IM injection or a little short needle?  I tend to forget my sublingual B-12 since we sleevers only have to do it weekly so was wondering about the shots.
I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)
