Nascobal (cyanocobalamin) "I was given the option of B12 shots or Nascobal nasal spray to maintain my B12 levels after being diagnosed with pernicious anemia. I chose Nasobal and have been using it for 5 years now. I administer once every 7 to 10 days. Very easy and much better than shots. I do sometimes get a mild headache a couple of days after taking it. But, that's not enough to deter me from using it."

"1998: After several years of slowly increasing tiredness, decreased running performance, and finally numbness beginning in the balls of my feet, I switched doctors and was diagnosed with pernicious anemia. This young doctor listened and bothered to run a blood check, unlike the first doctor. Blood B12 levels were in the basement despite my huge vitamin B doses taken orally. (Stomach absorption pathway is broken in pernicious anemia.) Began monthly B12 (cyanocobalamin, 1cc) injections for life, an easy effective solution. A month later, I could take 2 flights of stairs at work on the run again. Measurements confirmed the nerve damage in my leg was reversed when rechecked 6 months later -- no more "peripheral neuropathy"."
