just another quick question! I'm on SI b12 daily and just received my blood test results back Can anyone explain why my MCH is rising? I know this is an indicator of low b12 but it was getting lower and is now rising even though I am on daily b12 It isn't a huge difference but I am interested in why it is going that way instead of lower. I will post the numbers in the comments. Just trying to work out what my body is doing and how best to help it

Is this because daily b12 isn't enough or am I not getting it into my cells efficiently? I had covid
I'm still so tired and on top of all my neuropathy etc I am now having internal vibrations and twitching just started As well as the nerves around my teeth are highly sensitive and painful with random face numbness I don't know if its connected I'm getting worse. I did have COVID 2 months ago but laying down 22 hours of my day still
