Sally Pacholok

Big thank you to everyone involved with the making of this movie. I discovered it after many many months of suffering from low B12 and no answers / ineffective and irrelevant prescriptions from different doctors ... and it was a nurse who finally suggested I get tested for B12! Everyone please watch this movie and tell friends and family about it - you never know whose life you might help in a very big way by doing so!

Considering its $625k budget it's splendid, because it imparts all the information needed for patients to and doctors. I am one of the lucky who has macrocytic cells and that's what led to my diagnosis of low b12 but I have not had good ongoing support for my care. Even my current hematologist at Vanderbilt U doesn't believe that there's any reason to test MMA unless my serum level is below 300.

I wonder if Anet had a personal connection to this story or if she was just hired for an acting job. She certainly did a fantastic job. I recognized her from The Americans.

Ms. Leonard did a remarkable job in scripting what surely is incredible frustration for Ms. Pacholok and heart wrenching for the families affected.

Annette Mahendru, who portrayed Sally, was sensitive, genuine and amazingly entertaining while delivering a barrage of medical details that brought tears to your eyes and made your blood boil at the same time.

I only hope this film can bring about a change in policy and behavior in the medical community the way Erin Brockovich impacted water pollution policy.
