"My doctor administered a B-12 injection for my daughter and she had severe adverse neurological reaction. It has been over 1 yr and she still has evidence of side effects. We have been told B12 toxicity is uncommon. Has anyone experienced such side effects?"
"YES! My doctor gave me Vitamin B12 last August -- I did have a severe neurological reaction that lasted for several hours whenI wanted to jump out of my skin, and while it calmed down a bit, I have not been the same since. I did my own research and discovered it could cause such a reaction in those who are histamine sensitive. I have been following a strict low histamine diet, and at least am somewhat functional, but lost 7 months of my life to anxiety, depression, and what I can only call heebie-jeebies. You must find a naturopath or other practitioner who understands this relatively newly isolated condition. Believe me, it has been hell."
