A member asked:
Are the neurological symptoms from vitamin b12 deficiency reversible?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Not Always: The progression of neurologic complications is generally gradual. They are not always reversible with treatment of vitamin B12 deficiency, especially if they have been present for a long time.

B 12 deficiency: Partially reversible. If neurological symptoms are advanced and long-standing, then reversal will not happen. It is essential to prevent B12 deficiency - and if it develops, to get therapy asap;.
