Default b12 questions

Hey everyone,
New here, and glad to see the board is up and running.

Here's my question:

Is it possible to have a b12 deficiency (my level was at 220) and NOT
have elevated homocysteine, elevated mma, be positive for intrinsic factor block or pareital (sp) cells?

I do NOT have any of those associated problems..........
I have been tentatively dx'ed with Combined Systems Disease.
and/or Multiple Sclerosis.

I have attacks of fatigue, spasticity, weakness, cognitive problems, speech issues, balance issues............scotomas, bladder issues.......

clear mri's, one positive LP for elevated protiens, no dtr in left foot, positive babinski right foot, positive rhombergs, and more......

I recieve weekly injections of b12 since the intial protocol in Feb did nothing.
Weekly shots began in May, with my blood serum b12 at 700 in July & Aug.

Any insight for me?
Thanks for listening!
take care
laura
