o.k. I know you all have been waiting so here it is, the B12 shot results. That Friday that I got my first shot I ran a few errands on my way home from the shot and then took a nap. Then I went to an outdoor concert and I made it a whole hour. That seemed pretty good to me. The best part is I didn't get sick as some people said could happen the first day or so. The next night (Saturday), I went to another outdoor concert and made it two hours and felt fantastic. This time I really felt the shot had done it's thing. The third night (Sunday), I pushed it and went to another outdoor concert and was tired by the time I walked one block to get there. I made it an hour but sat 90% of the time. I have more energy but still don't have stamina. That will take a lot longer to achieve per my doctor.
This past weekend I took Friday off and went to the state fair. Yes, I dared go there. I did have to rent a scooter and even then only made it half the day but had a great time and I was OUT. Saturday, I went with some friends to a wine tasting, then out for ice cream and Sunday I got to go out on a lake for a boat ride.
During the week, I am still pretty much wiped by the time I get home from work so I don't do much then but getting through a full day at work is getting easier and easier to physically handle.
I think what I have learned is that the B12 definitely helped me with my energy level but stamina is a whole other thing. At least I can do more, just not for long periods of time. It still feels good to feel good and to get out. I feel like I have been trapped at home for so long and now if I have the opportunity to do something I am going to DO it. Slowly, my stamina will get better, I will just have to be patient for that.
