I take just what is in a multivitamin (generic Centrum).

I have my B12 checked regularly and it has been fine. At least there is one thing NOT wrong with me!

I think it is mcg (micrograms). Very tiny doses.

Just recently I had my B12 level checked and was found to have a level of 131. Which is quite low, so we are now doing injections and I am supplementing with B12 dots, 500mcgs. Along this line, due to my low iron stores and now low B12, I just had a celiac panel drawn on Monday. We'll see if that's been the cause of the malabsorption of vitamins and minerals.
