B12 Makes Me Ill
by Melissa
(New Jersey)
My name is Melissa and I was diagnosed almost four years ago with Fibromyalgia. I had my youngest at 42. He was unplanned and unexpected. During my pregnancy I was very ill. With Low blood pressure, low heart rate, I only gained 7 lbs, had abdominal surgery at about 23 weeks, was in the hospital and on morphine for about a week and the list goes on.
ok now that you know what I believe caused this stupid disorder....I really wanted to ask if you knew why B12 would give me terrible abdominal pains, nausea en diarrhea?
I take most of the supplements you advice and plan to add the two I don't already take and possibly discard others that I take. You see my stomach has never been able to handle large doses of supplements. Even the ones I take now I have to skip some days in order to make things easier for my stomach.
My doctor took me off of b12 close to a year ago. My doctor is a good listener keeps track of my vitamin D levels and has checked my thyroide again and again.
I eat clean, organic, non GMO, gluten free food. I only drink water, herbal tea and green tea. I don't normally sweeten tea but sometimes I use raw honey in my green tea. I eat lots of vegetables, use coconut oil, and raw vinegar for cooking.
However I have no energy, constant migraines and do nothing but gain weight.
I would love to try all of the supplements you advice in hopes of feeling better and getting control over my weight. However I don't want to be ill from the b12.
