Elevated B12 level

Anyone else have/had an elevated B12 level pre op? I don't take any vitamins. My liver enzymes were normal, white count normal. Surgery is scheduled for August 25th. Hoping this doesn't delay it.

    I don't take anything with it in it. I drink water and a cup of decaf coffee. My level was 1160, not sky high. Thank you for sharing. Good to know I'm not alone!!

I did. The max # was 900. My level was so far beyond, they didn't even record it. It was just flagged for being really high. I asked what my actual number was and was told it was 2,400. Then it dropped a few months later to 1,300. It didn't effect my surgery date at all. So, don't worry too much about it. Do you take or drink anything with B-12 in it? Such as Zipp Fizz, supplements or anything else by chance?

Oh good! You should be good then. It fluctuates just depending on your diet. If it goes really, really high and doesn't come down, then they start to get concerned.
