    That is an estimate, not the real value, and its multiply by 3. Post your BW.

    HCT is the hematocrit and is at 43%, so pretty low.

    It is true that B12 is required to the erythrocyte (RBC) formation, iron also enters this equation, and steroids will elevate erythropoiesis (sorry for the spelling, I think lol), but yours is still quite normal.

    B12 is water soluble vitamin, so your body will easily excret excess, 5000mcg orally I would not say its low dose but its not mega dose. I have injectable B12 of 20mgs, ussually only use a quarter or a fifth of it per week, but it is injectable, in orals you have to account absortion which can be like 50% or less.
    So maybe reduced to 2-3 times per week, and you should be fine.

    Same here.

    Drastic appetite increase will not happen on b12 whatever dose.
