I discovered that my BP is at levels like it was before I started the medication, and I'm taking just 2,000 mcg daily. I plan to cut most of my supplements tomorrow, to see if that is B12, or a different one. I'm also on gabapentin, which in more rare cases, can elevate blood pressure, and that will have to be changed if cutting the supplements doesn't work.
