B12 Now High Normal


Wolicki

Recommended Posts

Wolicki Enthusiast

I started having neuropathy a few months ago. At that time, all my labs were normal except for low normal B12, low Ferritin and hypothryoid. I've been on B12 shots, sublingual b12, Ferrex and Levoxyl.

Now, my B12 is high normal, still working on the iron, and Thyroid is normal. The neuropathy has not gone away yet. Does this mean I need to gret used to it? :o

I heard somewhere that it takes years to deplete your B12, and it takes years to get it back. The test only measures what's circulating in the blood, not what's being used by the rest of your body.

My nerve issues went away over many many months, not just a few.

That's how it was for me. It improved some in the first few months, but it took at least a year for it to go away significantly. Even with that, I still have issues with it on occasion. Your body has to lay down new myelin to cover those exposed nerves and that takes time. An issue with us is our general health. Your body needs to heal your intestines and that can be a slow process as well.

Hang in there. Your body needs to sort of rebuild and restore and that takes time. Eat very well and simply and take good care of yourself.

Yea I agree with the others. Hang in there as it can take awhile.

Thanks all. I sure do wish someone would come up with a magic pill! :lol:

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
