B12 Injections
To resume b12 injections, some surgeries have said they are not giving them at the moment or they have been put on hold.
Why the contribution is important
This is very important for patients who have pernicious anaemia ,PA is an auto immune disease and patients have their jabs to function properly,stopping these jabs or putting them on hold would probably lead to patients developing irreversible nerve damage, BHS Guidance on B12 during covid-19 can be found on the Pernicious Anaemia Society website dated the 25th April,

If his next one is cancelled then the whole two weeks boost would be for nothing
I am definitely going to ring the surgery to remind them of his injection and hopefully he will get it

They are called Cyanocobalamin 50 microgram Vit. B12 tablets. Great support from my Health Centre! Maybe you could enquire whether this would be possible for you?
