Thanks for your replies. I am only taking a multi-vitamin with 75 mcg B12 and 4 mg B6. With the doctor thinking my symptoms could be neuropathy related, I was very surprised to see this high of a level. I had taken my multi-vitamin that morning, but it seems unlikely it could raise the level that high. I'm not wrong that this is very high then?

I take a multi-vitamin, red yeast rice for high cholesterol and a low dose of an anti-anxiety med. My doctor called today and said that since my other tests look normal, it may just be that my diet is high in vitamin B. She still thinks my symptoms sound like they are neuropathy related and I have an appointment with a Neurologist in May. I guess there isn't much more for me to do until then. I've lost a fair amount of weight and I'm exhausted much of the time. I have been under a great deal of stress, so that may account for some of that. I'm a little frustrated that she brushed it off so quickly.

I do have a question. Can a person with a high B12 level (not supplementing) have neuropathy? It seems my level would be very low if this is what is truly going on with me.

When you say you have lost a lot of weight, how much? Just curious as I have been researching the link between being underweight and neuropathy. See the thread labeled "eating disorder neuropathy."

If you feel she blew you off call her back. Don't be afraid to request a new blood draw for your B12 level. Tell her you want to be sure it is that high because you feel it is concerning and would like to take the proper b12 level with you to the neuro. Be polite but be your own advocate. ![]() |

Cat, I am 5'4 and 108lbs. I was 125lbs a year ago. My neuropathy symptoms started a few months ago. I still feel as though most of my symptoms would be indicative of a low B12 and not one as high as mine. I read your thread and I can tell you that as much as I may enjoy drinking wine, I quickly found out it made all my symptoms worse, so I stopped having it.
Hopeful, Thank you. I know I should be a better advocate for myself. I will speak to the Neurologist in May and perhaps have another blood test. |
