if anyone has any other questions they think i should ask can you please advise me..............thanks
 
I'll answer the bits that I know.

Tiredness etc. can be caused by high sugar levels. (I still feel a bit 'drunk' after a really high carb meal, and my levels are mostly pretty good these days.) You will feel much better once they start to come down. Is there someone you can force-feed those sub rolls to??? :D

Long-term B12 deficiency can cause problems with memory. The injections are usually only every 3 months, and only necessary if supplements don't work.
