I would say, 419 especially in a person with symptoms is low.

It is borderline normal, but "normal" according to old lab ranges.

I think you should supplement with 5mg of methycobalamin daily taken on an empty stomach. Get retested in 3 months, and discontinue several days before the blood draw.

See what you have then, if anything has improved or not.
You should be at a value of 1000pg/ml or higher by then. If you are above 1000pg/ml you
can try reducing to 1mg a day, or not --it is your choice. Some posters here stay at 5mg a day
anyway. I take 5 mg twice a week, because I remain high at that dose.
