Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have pernicious anemia and have been taking a nasal spray and then B-12 injections as treatment. I recently went for a physical with my primary care physician and he said the current recommendations say B-12 vitamin pills are sufficient and injections or nasal sprays to have sufficient B-12 are not required. Could you confirm?
