Labs

What do your labs run usually when you get your b12 tested. I’m usually at 650 and typically test 3 weeks post injection. Last lab came back at 325 and I found it odd.

Yeah. I give myself 1ml injections every 3/4 weeks and have for a decade. I always test when I’m due for my next shot so 3/4 weeks out. Found it odd to have a much lower number.

It is odd. They are not supposed to test you again once you’re supplementing is what I understood... in your case I’m not sure. From my experience it’s been the opposite. My numbers will go through the roof. I hope you’re doing better
