I was wondering if anyone had tried b12 patches? I really need the shots to calm and heal my nerves.
Shots are too inconvienent. I saw b12 patches on the web and was curious if anyone had tried them.

Dave, I found a powdered B supplement that you can put into water, or take directly. It melts on your tongue, and absorbs through the oral mucosa.

If you have (lyme-induced) food intolerances, stay away from this product though! It contains rice, soy, corn and xylitol. I can't eat any of those things anymore...

Dave, I have tried B-12 Patches for a couple months (those shots hurt and I don't want to deal with self-injections) but so far I don't see much benefit. The directions say to use the patches once a week, behind the ear lobe, but perhaps that dose is too low. And maybe I am benefiting from them in a subtle way.
