I've just completed a 3 month injection course for b12 deficiency and taking supplements. why do my legs ache and tire easily with little activity?

Lots of ideas: I'm glad your B12 deficiency was detected and we can assume that it won't cause you to become demented and then die, as in the old days before it was treatable. Look at your overall level of conditioning, your vascular health, and whatever else to explain your current problem with your legs, now that we know it's not just B12.
