I had my surgery over 13 years ago and I am under impression I will continue to take B12 for life. Your friend might have other reason her B12 has increased, but if to high, her provider is correct to try and reduce.
At one of my yearly checkup my calcium was high, the provider order a recheck in 3 months and it was back in normal range.
Beside the B12 injections, is she taking other supplements that include B12?
Did her provider order a recheck in few months to see if in normal range after stopping B12 injection?

Apparently there can be false readings connected with B-12. He was injecting himself weekly, whereas I do it once a month. I was told also, that it is a lifelong commitment.
