Continuous Neuropathy In Feet Post A Fall, Blood Work Showed Excessive B12. Is Excess B12 Dangerous?
I have neuropathy in my feet . It could be from a fracturing my tail bone. I fell last September and the neuropathy started several months after that. I have been to various doctors and really do not have an answer. I started taking the Nerve Support. I showed my internist, after blood work she said I was taking too much B 12. Is it bad to have too much B 12. Thank you

High levels of B12 are not dangerous nothing to worry.
