Ok, so maybe it isn't THAT warning but I do have a plea to you.

Take your vitamins. Take them all...but ESPECIALLY take your damn b12. I have not been so great about b12. I'm doing well now with it, since I finally figured out I need to take it every day (instead of a montly shot or weekly sublingual) in order to remember. But there have been many times I've forgotten. 

I go in for some testing early next month but I think this may be one thing contributing to my utter lack of short term memory these days. I put my keys down and five minutes later I can't recall what I did with them. I go into a room to do something and forget what I came in there to do and Lord help me if someone interrupts me mid-sentence. We may never get back to what I'm saying.

I don't know if this is my b12 levels or something else, but just to be on the safe side I thought I'd warn you. Take your b12!!! In fact, if you were supposed to take it today and haven't yet, go do it now!!!

This is one respect where you want to be the polar opposite of me. K?

I do injections . Weekly. Monday or Tuesday. 
BTW: make sure you do not take B12  for a few days before the blood work. If you do - the numbers may show higher that they are acctually are.  YOu may want  to see how well you store the B12.
I was told to wait 5-7 days to get the test.

Oh Good GAWD! I already hardly remember my own name most days. 7 days!!! Ok. I will do that. In the name of science and whatnot.
