Perinicious Anaemia
Deficiency of vitamin b12 causes megaloblastic anaemia and over a period of time pernicious anaemia. Though the intake of vitamin b12 is sometimes adequate and when it is inadequate, given orally or parenterally (injections) also does not improve the absorption and increase the vitamin content in the red blood cells causing pernicious anaemia. Homeopathic medicine has good remedies to see that when vitamin b12 is given orally and through injections, it is easily absorbed and assimilated thereby reducing anaemia and its symptoms. Ars. Alb, fer. Phos are some of the common remedies which tackle this anaemia.

I want to know what causes this and why no one else in my family has it? Also if there are any studies going on th e find out the cure?
