I'm glad you checked your B12. It just confirms everyone needs to have the actual copies of all results. It can be very empowering. It can take a while for the b12 to be fully restored. And once it is, you may need to continue some level of supplementation forever. The next time you get blood work, be sure to get all the other nutrients tested too. I don't know if I mentioned folate before so in case I didn't, get that checked too. A high folate can indicate that you are not converting it but it's correctible.

Good luck with your move.
