Have b12 deficiency.im due for another shot and my arms are sore and my joints keep popping.is joint pain part of the deficiency?

No: B12 deficiency by itself should not cause joint pain. It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to discuss it with your doctor.
