Insomnia after 5 B12 injections

Question

Asked for Female, 26 Years

I have developed extreme insomnia after taking B12 injections last month . I never had sleep issues before this .My doctor prescribed injections because I was low on B12 but never had any symptoms. After injections my B12 level in 975. It's almost a month now I stopped taking them still my sleep hasn't returned. Is there any solution for this type of side effect?
