And my B-12 level from last month was 398.

I have taken a B-complex vitamin daily for many years, so it's not like I wasn't trying to get extra B vitamins. And I have always eaten a sensible well-balanced diet.

What would cause a woman's B-12 level to drop so dramatically in 7 years?

I've had Hashimoto's Thyroiditis for the past 15 years. Would that be the sole reason, or might there be something else?

I need to know what else to ask my endocrincologist to test me for when I see her next month.
not enough in most B complex tabs/caps to matter...you are apparently not absorbing as well as you were....consider celiac disease...good luck
