b12 and folate high - 5 year old son

My son came up slightly underweight for his routine reception weigh in - only slightly.
He generally is a healthy and energetic typical 5 year old.
The school nurse suggested before we meet again for his next weigh in - get his bloods taken so we have a better picture of what’s going on.

Everything came back normal - his vit D slightly low, so on some low dose gummies for that - however his b12 and folate came up high.
his B12 is around 820pg/ML

i’m just full of anxiety as i now need to wait 2 weeks to see the GP and have done the dreaded google search (which we always regret) and am now struck wuth worry.

Anyone been through anything similar with a child high b12 levels and what was the outcome in the end?

Thanks all in advance xx
