I've been dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency for a couple of months and started getting B12 injections weekly for six weeks. I just got my levels checked again, and now they're over 2000. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Also, I have some other blood work results like hemoglobin at 15, platelets at 346, and WBC at 7800. I'm curious if these are all interconnected somehow. What's going on with my blood tests?
