Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have thalassemia minor. Slight low hemoglobin is common. Your tiredness and weakness is due to low hb. Its not due to reaction from vit b12 injection. No need to worry. Just take treatment of your anemia.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
