about B12 injections:

Why yes, the body does get rid of any extra BRIGHT! RED! vitamin B12 in the urine.

(Web sites differ on whether this means I put it too deep. Believe me, with a needle that short and with the placement I chose, I did NOT reach muscle.)

At least I now know that I don't need any higher dose to give my body all the B12 it'll use. Whether I'm absorbing enough or not is a separate question.

Something on the B spectrum caused, er, fluorescent yellowness, back when I was taking B supplements. I always meant to get out a black light and see if it actually glowed.

Most apropos icon of the week!

Riboflavin, probably? Now I want to see if it glows! Maybe I have some pill-form B supplements lying around somewhere. I should probably wait until my doctor is done figuring out this B12 thing, though. Darn.

Ooo. That's a frighteningly good description. :)
