COPD - B12 deficiency is often misdiagnosed. Meant to link to this in one of the posts the other day where someone mentioned their mom having copd.

Meant to link to this the other day but cant find the right post. There are also better sites.

Have a family member dealing with a potential misdiagnosis, so wanted to share.

Get your b12 levels checked! If they are low, figure out why. Even a low "normal" can cause issues!!

Also, if you've tried it and it doesn't help, doesnt mean you aren't deficient. Cyanocobalamin is most common form but not so great for everyone. Also, for some they have to get the injections along with trying some of the other forms of b12 (like methylcobalamin).
