For people who have damage, and are low 5000mcg a day on an empty stomach will provide more response. You may want to find out your actual result for that B12.

Did you have Vit D tested too? That would be a good idea as well.
Hi mrsD. My B12 number is 270--according to my doc, that's the very low end of the normal range. So he thinks 1000mcg a day is enough for me.

My doc requested more blood tests, specifically to look for other vitamin deficiencies that my neuro didn't test for, including vit D.

Thanks for your input!

Be well,
APJH
