Vit. B12 Deficiency? Empty Vit. B12 Deficiency?

Post  mxgo Fri Dec 03, 2010 11:01 am

In my never ending quest to find reasons for my headaches, I am looking at Vitamin B12 deficiency as a contributing factor. I found this forum with a lot of information on the subject:

http://www.celiac.com/gluten-free/topic/6265-half-moons-on-fingernails/

Based on the above, my finger nails have vertical ridges and only have half moons on my thumb nails. And being a migraineur or at least a fellow traveler, I wonder if these symptoms,plus these mentioned in the above web site, point to a Vit. B12 deficiency that has lead to my headaches. As to being a contributing factor to headaches, the NY Headache Center does mentions the deficiency in B12 as a possible factor in migraines.

I am thinking of having a test done to check if I am deficient in B12. I am already taking Vit. D.

Has anybody on the forum pursued this course of action?
