B-12 shots

Has anyone ever gotten them? My dr advised me to start them since I have a deficiency....I am thinking this is why I am losing alot of hair the last few months.

I get one every month! No side-effects and I feel like it gives me more energy!

that's great about no side effects...I did read that one of the side effects is weight gain, which would really **** since I just lost 12 lbs and I wouldnt want to screw that up.

I had one and I broke out with a bad rash, it looked like I had sunburn. I take a B12 pill every day.

did you take the shot because you had a deficiency or just for an energy boost.

I wonder if there is a benefit of the shots over a B12 supplement in pill form.

because I have a deficiency, I was taking the B12 pills and my levels were not going up, so my doctor wanted me to have the shot once a month for 4 months and then go back to the pill, but 2 days after my first shot I looked like a tomato and my joints hurt (knees and elbows) I saw the doctor and she said that she had never seen that reaction before. . . . when I looked it up online a lot of website that I found said that I must have been allergic to the preservatives in the shot not the B12, so not I take the pills every day again.
