Pre care

If you have been diagnosed with Pernicious Anaemia (a condition wherein the body cannot absorb the B12 Vitamin from dairy products or other foods) you will be referred to your primary care physician for treatment.   ·       
• Be aware that Aspirin, aspirin-containing medications, fish oil, flax seed. High doses of vitamin A or E, Ginko Biloba or garlic may cause undue bleeding which may result in bruising. If you wish to minimize the risk of bleeding, be advised that we recommend you avoid these substances for a minimum of 3 days prior to treatment.   ·        
• Eat a meal or light snack prior to treatment.   ·        
• Notify your Clinician if you have a need phobia prior to treatment, this allows your Clinician to take appropriate precautions to ensure your treatment is as comfortable as possible.   ·

It is normal for the injection site to burn for just a few minutes immediately or shortly after the injection (although not everyone experiences this). This will dissipate once the muscle is used and the product diffuses into the muscle.
