You will attend a consultation for your initial appointment, which may include taking a blood sample for testing to confirm a Vitamin B12 deficiency
You might see a bruise or a little bit of bleeding if you hit a small blood vessel
This is also the preferred B12 solution provide at Blemish Clinic and because we are CQC registered we can offer both prescribing services and diagnostic screening for Vitamin B12 deficiency using blood tests
The bottom line : If you're not deficient in the vitamin, B-12 shots won't help you lose weight or feel healthier.
I order homocysteine as a reflex test only, not routinely: if B12, folate, or B6 comes back low on the initial panel, I then request homocysteine to see whether the deficiency is translating into elevated levels that feed into my DVT risk assessment
Allergic Reactions: Though rare, serious allergic responses like bronchospasm or anaphylactic shock can occur
