How are you taking the extra B12? Is it sublingual, because we can't absorb it if it's a pill that we swallow.

Well, many things can cause fatigue, not just low B12.  How's your iron?  Your vitamin D?  Are you getting enough liquids?  Enough protein?  Are  you sick?  Are you getting enough rest?

Also, how long has it been since you had labs done and your B12 was low and you increased the amount of B12 you take?  And how low was your B12?  It takes some time to get your level back up.

My doctor told me that I have to eat a few carbs every day too to help fuel my body.  Sounds like you are just run down from the stress and a cold.  Take a few days an let your body rest and recuperate.
