Suggest Treatment For Extreme Fatigue And Mood Swings

I have had an elevated b-12 level for past 11 mos. I have hashimotos thyroid. For past several months I have had extreme fatigue, very forgetful, generalized body aches and mood swings. I am 43 years old and have had thyroid since I was 16. My most recent TSH this past week drawn on 2/2 was 0.571. My biggest concern is that my b-12 has remained elevated. Last three results since 1/15 are 2000, 1399, and on 2/2 it was 1961. Should I be concerned and investigate further? I have a few other minor irreg lab values but nothing too bad. Could my symptoms be r/t elevated b12. I take no supplements or injections. Up until this past year I had chronic low b12 and was taking SL b-12. I stopped once elevated levels came back earlier this year. Thank you.

Well, it is suggestive of mood disorder. And co morbid medical problem. The existence of both together are common. Consulting a psychiatrist is advisable.
