Not from b12 defic.: B12 is often prescribed without a clearcut need for the vitamin supplement. It's 100% safe. But even if you had a genuine B12 deficiency, the supplementary dose is high enough that you should not experience any symptoms "when a shot is due." Look for another cause of your symptoms.
