My husband has low Vit B but cannot take sublingual tablets

My husband has low vitamin b12 - and he's getting shots (since he cannot take sublingual (he has a trach tube, and does not take anything by mouth (I tried the sublingual and they made him cough - not good))), so my question is about the frequency of shots. Our doctor prescribed one shot (1 ml) followed by another after 2 weeks, and then monthly thereafter. My husband started feeling a little better after the second shot, and I'm wondering if having the shots more often than monthly 9at least until he feels better) would be OK (say continuing bi-weekly until he feels better). What do you thin? Would the extra viatamin B 12 be bad for him, or would my suggested treatment be OK? (I will be asking the same question of our doctor on Monday, but was wondering what your counsel would be.
