Folic Acid and Vitamin B 12

Does anybody have more folic acid and vitamin B 12 as normal in his blood? I was tested because the doctor thought, I could have not enough of it, but now the results show, that there is more than normal...??? I do take one tablet of a multivitamin like ADEKs daily which contains folic acid, but no B 12, so I don´t know why these two are too high and if this means anything...
I will ask the doctor next week, but maybe someone here knows something<img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">

High vitamin B6 (folate) and B12 are typically the result of poor kidney function.

You mentioned that you take a multivitamin supplement. If it contains iron, that may be the cause. Also, if your diet is abnormally high in protein, that may be a contributing factor too.
