I have been taking B-12 shots for about 6 months when diagnosed with Pernicious Anemia. First I took a shot each day for 2 weeks, then 1 shot a week for 4 weeks, and now 1 shot a month. I really felt like my old self about the third week of taking 1 shot a week. Now that I only get 1 shot a month, I am starting to feel tired again. The doctor says all I need is 1,000 mcg. per month the rest of my life, but my red blood counts are still below the low normal range. I am going to get a second opinion, but my doctor says I should feel fine. I do take thyroid medicine each month because 5 years ago they diagnosed me with hypothyroidism. I need some help and suggestions. I feel like I should be getting more injectible B-12 each month....but the doctor insists it won't help me and won't let me try it. HELP
