I'm supposed to inject 1mg every 2 weeks of b12. I'm thinking I should do 500mcg once a week instead subq.

So far, the night of each injection has been incredible sleep, but the following back to normal. Doctor said to inject because my levels are dropping while supplementing and eating plenty. I guess I'm low on intrinsic factor.

Thanks. What's your dosing schedule look like?

Have you had your b12 tested again yet? I've been given a 30mL vial of cyanocobalamin and told 1mL (1mg) every 2 weeks, but that doesn't sound like enough. What was your schedule in the beginning?

I've been prescribed b12 injection every 2 weeks. Ask i have are the insulin pins I use for my test cyp. Is there any reason I can do my b12 shot shadow IM/subq? Also, I'm supposed to use a full mL, is that too much to do subq?

I've had similar bloodwork before where the MCV was on the low end, and when I addressed my b12 and donate deficiencies, it caused the HGB and HCT to fly...once all the way up to 58 HCT. Too high for comfort. It's happened several times.

But did any of those effect your sleep in a positive way?

Have you tried dhea or pregnenolone?

I've resorted to Lunesta and while it does let me fall back asleep, I'm still feeling like I "didn't sleep" the next day. It's so frustrating. Last night, I went to bed with 7 hours to sleep through, but ended up waking up at 2 hours, then woke up every hour until time to get up. Feel...

Lol my bad. Test cyp. Edited original post.

Gentz, I've been on 7mg test cyp daily since January 23rd or so bumping up from 5mg daily. 6 weeks on that is pretty soon, but the question is since I'm doing my shots before bed, does it matter when I get the blood drawn? Should i skip the nightly dose the day before and get it drawn that...

Volume hasn't changed much for me, and had more when I was on 10mg test cyp daily vs 5mg daily.

Well, I meant me having low b12 of messing up my sleep or circadian rhythm...

Right on. I finally manned up and have been on 7mg daily test c for 4 weeks and feeling better. Still no libido, but strength and muscle are up, sleep is mildly improved (pretty sure low b12 is messing this up), and mood is better. I've been curious about the test prop thing, but doubt my...

You were right. 50mg didn't do much. I woke up about 8 times, but at least was able to fall back asleep. I'll try 100mg next time. Probably will take lunesta tonight though to reset since I know it works though. This might be a silly question, but my bottle of Trazodone is a little over a...

I frequently get the post meal symptoms, but mine include palpitations with the shortness of breath. My heart will beat extra hard and faster for a few hours depending on what I eat.

By the way, I experienced that unpleasant taste as well with lunesta, but for me, it's not nearly as unpleasant. Will be trying trazodone tonight, 50mg.

The range for my b12 lab was 250 to 900 or something, so I'm at the low end of normal, but my TRT doc wants me at 800 or more. I have MTRR A66G mutation which could account for this, but I've also been taking 1g vitamin C with each meal for years. Did some info that vit c destroys the...

Wish my b12 was there...mine keeps bouncing around 360, up to 500, then dropped back to 360 again even while supplementing... covid may have dropped it again then though. I've notice eating any veggies with folate, or taking folate, makes me ridiculously irritable.

85% ugh...

It's been a couple years... have you figured this out?

How low is your b12? Are you taking anything for it yet? I've recently stopped all supplemental B's and am so much more calm, but my b12 is 362, on the low end. Unsure what to do.

Oh ok, I'm already on thyroid meds.

Do you say to let the drug get completely out of your system to prevent tolerance and addiction, or to prevent serious drug interactions?

There's no risk of respiratory/cns depression when alternating like that, since I'm sure some of those are still in your system when you take the next dose the next day?

Do you ever alternate trazodone and lunesta daily? Trying to figure out if it's dangerous since I took lunesta last night and the night before, taking trazodone tonight...

Do you notice any effects right away, or all of them take a while? Are you still using seroquel and your prescriptions with inositol?

Same here. Hoping trazodone takes care of it tonight for me.

Also curious about this.

Haven't slept in a couple days so bare with me... the technique here is to just move the weight as fast as possible, explosively, during the concentric portion of the lift?

When you wake up at 2 or 3am, are you stuck awake the rest of the night? That's me right now.
