Hi, thanks for writing in, welcome to the forum. 222 is on the lower side of the normal range but not abnormal. Supplementing B12 is regardless a good idea. But it is questionable if your symptoms are related to B12. We will also need to evaluate for alternative causes and treat accordingly. Take care!
