High Vitamin B-12 Levels?

Ok - so I got blood work done for my upcoming visit (Thursday 04/25) with my oncologist. All my blood work came back SUPER GREAT.

EXCEPT my Vitamin B12 level. Look at my results. It was crazy high. It is like 1000 units over what it should be. I do take a supplement, but it was on my requirement list post VSG (with Vitamin D, Calcium, etc.) I really only take it every 2-3 days, not daily. And all my other levels came back near perfect....

Has anyone else gotten these kinds of results? Should I be concerned? I mean WOW. I will let you know what my Dr. thinks after Thursday.

Mine was high as well. It was like 985 or something like that. My Dr said to stop taking the supplement and they would check it again at the next blood letting.

My NUT told me that B12 is water soluable and it will come out in your pee if you take to much, she told me not to worry about it?

I was put on it right after surgery and mine came back high (1542) during my 3 month follow up. I was cut back to taking it 1 time a week and they will check it again in a few months.
