I have been struggling with dizziness since November 2013, the dr told me that my b12 was slightly low and could be causing these symptoms. I am now getting b12 injection shots which help for only about 2-3 days. But they only seem to help with my fatigue issues. My symptoms are the following; digestive issues, unbalanced, visions issues, cannot concentrate, headaches and I have gained an anxiety issue due to all this. I've gotten a cardiac test done which came out fine, blood test which says I have slightly low b12 and I am scheduled for an mri on July 17th. I am 23 years old and weight 230lb and I'm 5"11 in height. My life has come to a pause because of this dizziness, I can no longer enjoy my life nor go to work I am constantly laying down for the fear of fainting or falling down. If anyone has any suggestions I am all ears and I would really appreciate it.
Can b12 deficiency lead to a constant unbalanced feeling?

they have a bigger dose of vitamin b12 ieve been told do you get the b12 shots once a month mabe they can give a pill to i'm not sure if they can you are under good care life can't stop here and i realize its scary but you have to pick up the best you can see if theres a way you can get the b12 more often
Eat green leafy vegetables. Spinach, mangoes and broccoli really helps. Eat iron rich fruits and vegetables and avoid take outs. After getting up eat a salad or have a bowl of cereal which is rich in iron. Continue this for a week and see if you feel a change. If you do then continue this as long as you feel your normal self again.
Also according to your weight and height, your bmi shows that you're obesse. A little walking around may help decrease the weight and create a an energetic mind.
People usually get these symptoms when they gain weight. I know this is the last thing anyone wants to hear but exercise and eat healthy. Don't give up all the junk but give it a try for sometime.
All your symptoms show you're anemic but I'd suggest you ask the doctor.
Good luck!
i was very active until this happened, i would work out every day and also do a lot of cardio. Now i have a fear of fainting and if i do anything such as squats or bench press i fear that i will faint and the weight will collapse on me. I know that i am a bit over weight. But the dr has told me that this is not the reason for the dizziness.
i get the injection every sunday, there is a total of 12 injections i am on number 5 which i will be getting tomorrow. I asked my gp if i should take pills, but she told me that i would end up digesting it out since the body can only take so much.
