Closed Change the level on B12 blood test as it is set too low

Closed on

At present the serum level for B12 is not included with regular blood work and is set too low
This means that people with debilitating symptoms get ignored with little or no treatment for chronic pain and nerve damage.

Some die others will be wheelchair and housebound needlessly.
All that we need is for the serum level to be reset under 200 to 550 as a standard just as Say iron is essential and set so is B12 .
This simple steps would mean million of lives saved from nerve damage and millions of needless medical expenses saved
