What's better, the nasal B-12, the sublingual B-12, or the shot?

According to my surgeon, the nasal spray is equal to the shot--and both are superior to the sublingual.

WOW...my husband opened a brand new bottle last night and gave me an injection.  I'm going to call my pharmacy right now.  Thanks.

Yes there are problems finding it everywhere.  Not sure the reason but I've talked to numerous people that can't get it right now.

This could be a problem for those of us (not me) that can't absorb the sublinguals correctly.  Some insurances still won't pay for the nasal spray :(.

I just called my PCP yesteday to get a script for it. Ive been taking subliguals (500 per day and a 5000 once every 2 weeks) since my surgery 5/19 but over the past two weeks,.. Ive gotten all those symptoms that indiciate low b 12. I am only 2 months out so Im not sure if Ive gone through my stored supply? Any advice is welcomed. But I plan on beginning the shot ASAP,.. once my lovely PCP is back in town on Wed. I thought about calling my surgeon for a script but my PCP should be back tomorrow,... I hope dont run in to any issues filling the script though! Thanks for the heads up.

 I posted about this last month. It is a production problem. Only a few places are being affected by it. Check around your town at different places to see if they have any. That is what I did. I found it thankfully at target.
