Yes, this illustrates the addiction doctors have to lab ranges.

If a lab range is flagged it is a warning to them. But for B12, this is not true. Of course they don't understand that 200 which the lab says is "normal" is not, EITHER. The new low normal is 400.
In some other countries it is even higher!

They don't have experience with it, and that is why I post here and give the medical link to American Association of Family Physicians.... which is a CE for DOCTORS to keep up. That link is from 2003, and I can tell you that daily people show up on PN with labs in the 200 range an with significant PN symptoms too.
