ljl: Your friend is right. As my Dr says, it's better to take met with food and have a slight decrease of absortion, than take it without food and lose 99% of it because you're in the bathroom with the runs.  It really is a mtter of how if affects your body. I have learned to never take met without taking a few bites of food first, otherwise I pay for it dearly. 
Ang: As Linda's article says, taking calcium with it, tends to reverse the B12 malabsorption. If you are eating B complex in your diet and taking a pre-natal, you'll probably be fine. I also get my B12 checked every 3 months to make sure that my body is getting what it needs.
Hope it helps.
