NEWS from the B12 Deficiency Support Group

The B12 Deficiency Support Group has brought you this page to support anyone who suffers from any of a wide range of symptoms, including fatigue (or overwhelming tiredness, may be diagnosed as ME, PV CFS - Post Viral Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), pins and needles (including strange feelings in the face, arms, legs, numbness, "socks and gloves"), loss of power (haven't got strength in your arm or leg, can't swallow, difficulty with eyesight), memory and thinking problems (sometimes called "the fogs", could develop into dementia and/or Alzheimer's disease), digestive problems (frequently called Crohn's disease), infertility and/or menorrhagia, and autoimmune disease.
Our President is the MP for Easington, The Hon. Grahame Morris. Grahame Morris has taken a keen interest in the work of the Support Group since many years before he became MP, and has championed our cause including submitting an Early Day Motion in the UK Parliament jointly with Priti Patel, Conservative MP for Witham. Grahame is well acquainted with the work and you can see him interviewing people who suffer from the condition, on some of our Video Interviews
Our Lifetime President is Dr Joseph Chandy who has investigated B12 Deficiency, from a practical point of view, for over 30 years. Dr Chandy first realised that B12 deficiency is a problem in UK after he had treated a woman with unexplained anaemia for 10 years, and thought that there must be an underlying cause.
The Chair of the Support Group is Colin Reynolds, Alderman of Easington, and he is ably supported by Norma Reynolds, Ann Peel (Secretary), Susan Peacock, and Hugo Minney
