B12 can get elevated from what is called a dysbiosis in the bowel.

When certain organisms start to proliferate, sometimes after antibiotic treatments (usually oral), those organisms can make B12 and you absorb it that way.

There are other disease states that raise cobalamin when no supplements are taken:

I do hope for your sake that the resurgence of your symptoms are not related to a malignancy.... this type of PN is called paraneoplastic.
