Suggest Remedy For Pernicious Anemia

I have severe dizziness, sinus pressure, ear pressure, a recent diagnosis of Intracranial Hypertension, and am on Prednisone for inflamation of my optic nerves. I also have been having severe pain in my neck, arm pits, and groin. The only thing I can think of is lymph nodes? Could this be causing my Intracranial Hypertension? I also have a long list of autoimmune diseases that include, viteligo, hoshimotto s, pernicious anemia, autoimmune atrophic gastritis, as well as a history of gastric carcinoid tumors. I am in distress over all of this. The intracranial hypertension has caused swelling of my brain, the lymph nodes have been like this for months and are painful. What can I do & how can I get doctors to expidite my care? No one seems to be in a big hurry to help me and my health is going down hill quickly.

Hi,

Pernicious anemia is due to a lack of vitamin B12. It has to be injected to get in. Monthly injections will fix pernicious anemia.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
