Hi brigitt,
I spoke to you over the phone today. The b-12 supplement should be taken once per week at 500 mcg dose.

Is it possible to od on B12? I'm reading suggestions for 1000ug SL daily. What would happen if you get too much???

Hi Sissy,
taking to much Vit-12 can be problem. You will have blood work done soon after surgery to determine your Vitamin b-12 levels.

Hi;

I can only tell you what I know from first hand experience. I went to Dr. Allam for a checkup and as soon as he saw me he knew I had too much B vitamins in me because I had terrible bruises on my legs that I could not account for. He made me skip a month and then he is retesting me this month before I have anymore. Hope this helps,

Kim
