Vitamin B12 levels high (790)
I am 57 years old male from India. I am recently having pain near left triceps and 2 kgs of weight loss in last 2 months. The tricep pain started earlier but it worsened in the last 2 months. Doctor gave Neurobion Forte twice daily and prescribed several tests. Cardiac tests (echo and ECG) are normal, chest X ray normal, left hand X ray detected cervical spondylosis. Now I also did several blood test-CBC, thyroid, lipid profile, blood sugar, creatinine, potassium, sodium. Everything is normal except Vitamin B12 level. The range level of the lab was 190 to 835. My test result was 790. I think my level is very high in my opinion. I searched internet and saw that high b12 is sometimes related to leukemia and liver malignancies. I again say the CBC is completely normal (Can leukemia be ruled out if I have normal CBC ? ) . I am very concerned regarding recent 2 kg weight loss and this high b12. I am always a slim person. What is causing this high b12? Seeking answers from haemotologists.

Your vitamin b12 is well within normal level. Don’t worry it has no relation with your symptoms. You definitely don’t have leukaemia
