High Levels of Vitamin B12 and Ferritin: Any pointers?

Posted by cocoa @annieecruz, Apr 29, 2018

What type of doctor handles test like the MMA Urine test and the HoloTC? Test related to how your body breaks down/absorbs and transport/bonds B12? My B12 test came back extremely abnormal.

Interesting thread. I’ve had rising ferritin levels for 4 years with monitoring every 3 mos. It’s gone from 230 to now over 560. This last time my B12 was over 2000. Hit and miss, I take a B12 supplement. My iron stores are normal. No inflammation markers. Negative for hemochromatosis . I’m not obese, I do have medication controlled HBP and lipid levels as well as under control hypothyroidism which my PCP attributes that condition to having had Covid 3 times despite being fully vaccinated.
Has anyone had a similar situation? I’m not sure the high ferritin and high B12 are related.
Thanks in advance for any insights!
