Default Well, what you've mentioned--

In the mean time I've stopped the crazy prenatal vitamin with 8x the amount of B12. Also was receiving B12 injection from my dermatologist, which helped with my acne and hair loss. Hopefully that will bring it down to normal.

--might certainly explain a B12 result in that range, especially if you absorb normally; how often were you getting those injections?

A lot of us who megadose B12 for various neurologic reasons are used to much higher readings than that (my last one was 1864--I do take a lot of B12, though)--and to having to explain this to not-so-savvy doctors.
