Male, 29

I used a lot of nitrous over the past few months (6L every 2 weeks or so) and started to experience low mood and increased anxiety. I have also been extremely stressed at work. My hair is shedding but I believe this is tied to a motorbike accident I had 3 months ago (telogen effluvium).

Got my bloods done and B12 was low.

Vitamin B12: 162

Serum Folate: 25.4

Homocysteine: 118

Doc put me on 1 injection per week for 3 weeks and said I will be fine after that. I am concerned the Homocysteine is really high but the doctors were not super concerned, said mine is not terrible, but its cause for concern.
