Don’t take the maximum. Start slow and work your way up.
Do this:
200mg of B12
400mg of coQ10
100mg of MSM
Should make you feel a bit better.
Hello,
I’m sorry about this.
Vitamin B12 is not always absorbed from the ’stomach’ very well. There is nothing wrong with getting them to try, but if you are low on Vitamin B12 (as proved by a blood test), a doctor would certainly want to treat you by giving you Vitamin B12 Injections.
Low Vitamin B12 is associated with damage to the nerves going to the legs, technically called ‘peripheral neuritis.’ It’s usually just one part of a disease called ‘Pernicious Anemia,’ (I’m sorry, there is no common name).
Pernicious Anemia is quite a serous disease. It mostly affects older people, you don’t say how old you are.
It might be low B12 like you say, but I don’t think that would be causing the irregular heart beat or the circulation problem.
You can try B12, like I say, but I don’t quite see how you’re going to get this fixed without a few blood tests and a medical opinion.
I hope this is of some help.
Best wishes,

The daily value for B12 is 6 micrograms, but there is no tolerable upper limit established for B12. I haven’t seen any studies on whether there is such a thing as too much vitamin B12.
I have personally taken up to ~500% of the daily value, which would be about 30 mcg, and did not notice any side effects. You can read about the experiment here:
Hope this helps and good luck.
