Unless you are taking mega doses of B12, and elevated level of B12 is an indication of inflammation. It would be prudent to consult an ENT doctor as it is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining you. Wish you good health!

Agree with Dr Singh. To evaluate tinnitus, an otolaryngologist is the correct consultant. Do not assume your B-12 level is the culprit, as your pathogenesis almost certainly involves an alternative etiology.
