I have a sublingual B12 supplement but as soon as I put it under my tongue, it makes me salivate from the slightly tart taste. If I'm constantly swallowing (not a lot, but more than when the B12 is not under my tongue), am I still absorbing the B12 properly under my tongue or am I swallowing it in my saliva?

My DH has been having trouble with numbness in his hands since 2007. He went to orthopedists, neurologists, hand specialists, and others. He was told it was everything from a pinched nerve in his neck, to one in his elbow, to Multiple Sclerosis.
Recently he started experiencing the same tingling in his feet. He went to a general practitioner who sent him for lab work and determined he had a B12 deficiency.
Something so simple, but misdiagnosed for so long, has done permanent damage. He has permanent nerve damage in his fingertips.
