Jus a comment regarding the B12. It would be good to know what her levels were before they started the shots. B12 supplementation can falsely elevate the serum levels.
B12 is a very safe supplement to take and oral B12 can be just as effective as the injection. It's a good idea to take B12 even if the test show low-normal levels since B12 serum testing is not a definitive indicator of B12 status. A recent study showed that patients with low-normal levels were actually deficient in B12 and supplementation reversed their condition. They were pretty aggressive in restoring their B12.
