: : I am a 26 year-old female who was diagnosed with pernicious anemia 1 and a half years ago. I started getting monthly shot of B-12, and after two weeks I became very tired and I couldn't eat without getting sick. They increaded my B-12 shot now to weekly. Still sometimes it is not enough.
I don't understand why I have this disease for no one in my family has had this plus I eat meats and dairy. My Dr. can't really answer my questions or give me phone number to help groups. So I hope you can help.
