High Vitamin B12 levels

Just had my 6 month post op labs drawn and the B12 came back with a >2000 level, max for the lab is 911. I've looked it up and it's either really benign or super serious. Some studies suggest it's impossible to store too much B12 others say it could be related to liver issues or certain cancers. Most studies recommend a follow up blood draw before drawing any serious conclusions but I'm just curious if others have had this problem and what came of it.

  • I had this once not sure how high my number was but redid blood work 2 months later and levels were back in normal range

  • mine has always been high. When it got over 2000, the PA at my bariatric clinic just suggested I cut back a bit on my B12 dosage since it was a waste of money to continue taking as much as I was takin
