Hi,
Thanks for your query.
The degree of the deficiency of the Vit B12 determines the time involved in the disappearance of the symptoms.
First the Vit B 12 has to be replenished in the stores and then the remainder will get involved in chemical reactions needed for production of myelin sheath.
This may take a minimum of 2 to 3 months after the formulated (according to the deficiency) dosage of vitamin is administered.
Though late the effect is very comforting, need not worry the symptoms you have will never recur again once the Vit B12 level is sustained normal.
Hope I answered your query.
Wish you good health.
