I took 1000mcg of B12 methyl this morning and then about 3-4 hours later I almost passed out. I was outside for about a half an hour and I know it's hot. I went from feeling fine to all of a sudden almost passing out.I also had a bit of chest pain. I had two cups of juice and ice on my neck. My husband took me to the urgent care after I came home and ate lunch and still did not feel well. My EKG was fine, urine fine, and blood sugar was high but they said that may be b/c of my juice and lunch. My blood pressure was low 90/55 but I run low so that's not to odd for me. However, I still don't feel well. Lightheaded, dizzy, my blood pressure is still low b./c every time I get up I feel like I'm going to pass out.
Recently I can only take pediatric doses of medicine...could 1000mcg be to high for me?
I have been following the mcdougal vegan low-fat diet b/c I tested positive for the FL1953 and that is the diet Dr F has me on to combat the bug.
I just don't know what could have made me feel this way but the b12? Any suggestions? Can you herx from a vitamin???

This post was on the second page without any responses. I bumped it "up" to the top of the first page so more people would see it.

I don't want anyone to feel ignored or unimportant here. [group hug]
