Thank you very much for getting back to me. I will do that. I had additional blood work done and by B12 levels were 1949- very high, Im sure that can't be good.

Hello again
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX low vit b12 is quite common but such a high level of vit b12 is very rare and needs evaluation. The two most important factors that can cause this are
1. Liver disease such as Cirrhosis and Hepatitis
2. Myeloproliferative disorders like polycythemia Vera
I would like to suggest you to discuss this with your primary physician so that this can be evaluated.
