My b12 is over 2000. I used to take b12 supplements for months. I stopped about one week ago. I’m having anxiety, balance issues, feeling a bit depressed. Never had that before. Is it possible that high b12 is causing these? Thanks
Hi Doctor. Perhaps you can help us? Under medical care in the UK my 5year old non verbal son has been receiving 1mg methylcobalamin injections once every 3 day.. For 1 month now. After first 3 shots we noticed great improvement in speech and comprehension and eye contact. We are wondering if this is showing us the root of his pathology. Ie b12 methylation cycle issue. Your knowledge in this area seems very comprehensive and perhaps you could advise us remotely on additional support to help our son. If thats possible please let me know where to contact you. I can share labs and a more detailed medical history and clinical presentation. In short, apart from speech, and social interacting. He is very healthy. Diet, sleep, behavior, play and energy is very good. If consultation is not possible, perhaps you can steer me in the right direction. Hoping to hear from you TIA
Sir. My b12 levels were 1100 after taking b12 tablets 1500mcg for ten days and also i was on b12 juice for the same time period. Without any washout the 11th day i was having my b12 serum test which came out to be 1100, is it can be through oral supplement or any other thing is going through my body???
Thanks for sharing! My family member is taking 1000mcg b12 methylcobalamin sublingual tablets for 2 months, sometimes he skips a few days. Because of his forgetfulness we don't really know if we should continue or stop suplementing. He had levels around 150 at the beginning and after taking cyanocobalamin he then had levels around 350. From that point he started the methylcobalamin. Will you stop suplementing when your levels are above the 500?
@@swintegrative Thanks for your reply! Not sure how he's feeling due to memory decline. We see that he's doing better now but sometimes he get headaches and his memory still need improvement. However sometimes I worry about the high dose of 1000mcg methylcobalamin. I personally cannot tolerate any high dose methylated vitamin, so I'm very aware of the side effects. I know that many studies says that 1000mcg methylcobalamin is safe but I really doubt it to be honest. Sure, extreme b12 defeciency needs to be supplemented with high doses but after reaching levels around 500 I'm not sure if one should continue. Do injections contain 1000 mcg methyl-b12 as well? I think that the sublinguals do have the same effects. Therefor I think that the sublinguals of 1000 mcg methyl-b12 should also be taking once a week/month. Do you understand my point or do you have other experiences? Thanks for sharing your knowledge with us!
My mother had pernicious anaemia in her later life and had monthly injections. I am now on B12 injections every three months at the moment. One of the worst side effects I get after the injection is that the skin on my face breaks out in sore spots and I have never suffered with spots in my life.
That is interesting and that is the most benign type so thats good. idk your situation so hard to tell but could be temporary if you were really deficient on the other end could be more than you need. good luck

From what you described taking the B12 is the likely culprit
I just had my b12 tested 230 and I’m having horrible issues , balance , memory , tingling , depression , panic …..and I have horrific gastro issues
Some of that could be B12 👍. Good luck
@@swintegrative and the most horrific air hunger that I forgot to mention but my rbc is very normal , my brain feels like it isn’t getting oxygen
@@lam7402what type of balance issue u r facing. Will u please elaborate?
Is this balance issue in a pattern or not?

Thanks for sharing! Not just the lab result also base on how the person feels
