It is just crazy that Doctors do not get nutrition training in Medical schools. Every doctor visit should include some nutrition discussion. The majority of the population is over weight or obese leading to high blood pressure, heart disease and cancer. Schools and hospital cafeterias should be leading the way to good health by setting the example of what is a healthy meal and teaching people what to eat and why.. Every person in the hospital for heart disease should have a nutrition class before being checked out from the hospital with follow up education and training in nutrition. Medicare and Medicaid should require patient nutrition education as part of their standard of care. Nutrition information should be run on the hospital TV channel.
Hmmm! I was thinking my blurred vision was from blood sugar issues.. but this makes me question my B12 level instead bc I know it's very high.. thanks for sharing!
MY VITAMIN B12 IS >2,000, VERY HIGH CALCIUM, VERY HIGH RDW, LOW IRON LEVEL AND LOW IRON SATURATION... THIS IS JUST THE BEGINNING OF MY JOURNEY. I'VE BEEN FIGHTING FOR MY LIFE FOR OVER 2 YEARS. WHAT IS GOING ON?? I'M AT THE POINT I CAN BARELY GET OUT OF BED. I HAVE A TUMOR ON MY RIGHT BONE MARROW, AND CHRONIC FREE FLUID NEAR MY TAILBONE THAT SHOULDN'T BE THERE.

how b12 isnt the worse thing to be concerned about theres so many health things u guys can be concern 2000 is very high but not critical if ur blood work is fine and liver and kidney is fine then u are fine its just ur body it holds onto b12 easily just remove all b12 vitamens from ur diet and take it easy on food that contains b12 just eat less meat and other stuff and try to drink 16 glasses of water do that for a couple of months then check again if u can get it from 2000 to 1000-1400 thats still high but not critical ull be fine
I am being treated with B12 shots one time a week, 1 ml. Lab value is 2000. I have symptoms that you describe. I cannot find a doctor who knows how to treat my high b12. I live in Dallas area. Can you help me find a doctor to treat high B12. I have has the symptoms you describe since June 15 2021.

The metylcobalt is the natural way to take B12 injections or supplements. The cyanocobalamine gave me bad symptoms. I now do myself subcutaneous daily injections.
Hi there I have >1500 B12 labs for about a year. I have had debilitating, chronic fatigue/fibromyalgia/Lyme for nearly 30 years and stopped being able to work with more advanced doctors like you about six years ago due to finances. So now I’m getting these readings through my regular PCP, and she has sent me to a hematologist, but I have to wait months for that appointment and meanwhile my fatigue is unbelievably even more debilitating than usual, I need even more sleep like 14 hours for a chance to function and then I’m totally exhausted anyway. We did the lab for intrinsic factor and my result was abnormal i.e. positive instead of negative which is it supposed to be. It seems like it’s pretty clear that the lack of intrinsic factor means you have pernicious anemia. Do you agree with that? thank you so much for your videos and your help!
I have was diagnosed with lymes 9 years ago and suffer from pretty much everything you are describing symptom wise , my B12 is unusually high I was just told . Also that I was positive for mono NOT Epstein Bar like it usually comes up because of past infection when I was a teen. I have chronic lymph nodes that swell the same as when I had mono 25+ years ago and all symptoms come bk like mono and Lyme if not rested / stressed ect . Just curious if you have any of these symptoms?
Both of you can look up MTHFR. Possible you have that gene variant. You should try to supplement methylfolate in drops. But careful start with one drop per day and work up to 1 drop 8 times a day. 1 drop being 100micrograms. It can irritate you a lot at the beginning and can make you restless at the beginning because your body was lacking it the whole time and now must adjust handling it. Your body is bad at producing it with this gene variant plus mono or Lyme infection can reduce it further. So you get trapped in this vicious cycle.. You can further support methylation by taking creatine, cholin and lecithin. Cholin 2-3x the normal dose ❤ Write me if you are going to try it and if it helps
Hi I have had two high B12 tests over the past year, 2400 and 1800. The doctors do not seem to be concerned because my CBC is normal but I have daily headaches, swollen tongue, anxiety, fatigue, lichen planus and I was in icu intubated for eosphinillic PNX years ago and my red blood cells shut down but they never found out the cause. I have now also started having intermittent chest pain. I am a nurse and I have been active and try to eat healthy. Just looking for direction for follow up tests
Me too 🤔 I got "Lichen Planus" & my Vitamin B12 was 1750 now its 2000 (I don't take supplements)??? I have a left gait issue Vertigo Imbalance Heterogenous Thyroid I just was diagnosed w/"Scoliosis" & w/"Syncope & Collapse"!!! I get blurred vision/Sweating Heat Intolerance (I damn near pass out) I "also" lost the ability to control the left side of my body....until I lie flat for 5 to 10 minutes!!! 🧐 Then, sometimes I get random bouts of "weakness" (while I'm doing errands/etc), & need to sit down or I'm on the floor!!!
I just figured out high B12 has been causing my rash for almost 2 years 😩 didn't realize it was my supplement.. I was taking hydroxocobalamin, which I guess can cause a cobalt allergy.. I do have nickel allergy, so it all makes sense.. thought I was helping myself and ended up harming myself.. be safe! 💗
@@swintegrative scary to think I've been harming myself all this time 😭 but at least I'm closer to knowing what has been wrong with me.. has been a very scary 2 years.. they tried to diagnose me with autoimmune disease, but I knew that wasn't it.. 🙏🏽
My mother's WBC and RBC is normal, LFT and KFT are normal but have fatty liver(17 cm enlarged) and stubborn ulcers in mouth from 1 year (ent and dentist said it's not cancerous) Many times B12 test has been done, every time it comes high level more than 1500 but doctors don't care and avoid it, give multivitamin and say that it will not make any difference. she used to take multivitamin, left multivitamin for 20 days and got the test done even then B12 1500 has come. (Sorry for my bad English)

My cousin B12 that has gradually risen to over 6000. Six thousand. No doctor can find anything wrong. Every year they scan him but find nothing. No symptoms. What is happening?
I took semiglutide compound with vitamin12, and i developed bad odor in my mouth and also discharged like a yeast infection, i drank a lot of water and my mouth is always dry, thats the only symptoms that i developed so i decided to stop taking those semiglutide...
Hi! My most recent lab result (1 wk. ago) indicates >2000 B12 and low RBC count. I never had this issue before. I feel very fatigued all day and find it hard to concentrate at work. How can I reverse or get rid of the B12 in my body? I'd greatly appreciate an answer. Thank you.
Hi doc. I added B12 supplements three weeks ago. I have a rash on both arms in the folds of my inner elbows. I am not allergic to anything and normally have very good but mature skin. I’m thinking this may be the culprit. Thoughts?

I just ended another course of prednisone a few days ago, so I'm waiting to see if any spots will return.. so far, so good.. I took my last B12 a few days ago.. what kind were you taking? I was taking hydroxocobalamin 1mg, which I knew was high, but I didn't realize I was sensitive to the cobalt..
Thank you, Dr. Terranella! I've been having B12 deficiency symptoms, mostly just what you said. I /think/ it is related to over methylation as I was taking methylcobalamin & methylfolate. My doctor said my B12 was elevated so I quit taking it for a while. Maybe that caused low B12? I was still taking other B vitamins, so I thought I should be getting enough. But the methyl versions may be the issue. I stopped taking methyl versions 12/23 or 01/24. I eat beef liver, meat, & eggs, mostly so I didn't think it would be a problem but I've been having severe insomnia. I'm getting tested tomorrow so maybe I'll know soon.

Not sure if related but iron levels fall and rise every couple of months, currently on 3 month course . Dr still carrying out tests but not sure why it's happening, any ideas?
Same here, my B12 came around 1600. I think it happened due to B12 supplements that I started taking a month ago. I was taking 1000mcg B12 plus 400 mcg was already present in BComplex
I had megaloblastic anemia with low b12 so I use injections first cijanocobalamin and thwn hidroksicobalami with methlcobalamin sublingul. Generally I feel better, my simptoms are much better but it caused acne similar keratosis pilaris on my face and upper body. Is fact that glutathion can reduce side effects od B12? I combined oral and injections because of severity of my simptoms including depression etc
I've tried all the types of b12 my body freaks out with twitching, anxiety, insomnia, racing heart 140bpm. I don't know what to do because I am deficient at 400. I'm having the same reaction with foods that are high in b12 as well. I don't know what to do. My health feels like it's been slowly declining the past 2 years as the b12 number goes down, having memory issues, mood swings, poor blood circulation. They said I don't have the MTHFR gene mutation and that I absorb b12 just fine. I was able to take b12 throughout my life it's just been within the past 2 years it's been like this. Any ideas what it could be?

B12 was around 1400 and folate was 24. Having all kinds of terrible long COVID symptoms. I'm wondering if this is a connection cuz my reg pcp doesn't know much about long COVID. Been suffering since early 2020. I also think I have underlying pots, and everytime I get a infection, it triggers it. But usually diet and lifestyle changes have managed it for years. But COVID really messed my body up
I know MCAS is another issue regarding long haul. Major connection I've been trying to investigate also. So its interesting to hear u mention it in this video!!!
I had my gallbladder removed and my b12 is high. I think it’s because your gallbladder helps you detoxify and without it you can’t break the b12 down efficiently. I can’t take medicines like I used to either. Antibiotics make me really sick and they never did that before my gallbladder removal.
