Hello Sir/Madam, I have been feeling lightheaded, so my doctor suggested checking my vitamin levels. My blood report shows Vitamin B12 at 172 ng and Vitamin D at 6. The doctor prescribed Neurobion Forte for 10 days and Meconerve Plus for 15 days. I am experiencing daily nausea, lightheadedness, and headache. I want to know if my Vitamin B12 level will increase with this treatment and whether I should stop taking Meconerve Plus, as it is causing me significant discomfort.

B12 is borderline low, and Vitamin D is deficient. You may switch supplements if side effects persist. Recheck after 2 to 4 weeks. Please repeat Vitamin B12 and D levels.

My Vitamin B12 is 163, which is below the normal range. I am experiencing tingling, numbness, weakness, shortness of breath, fatigue, tiredness, and body pain. I have taken Vitcofol 6, 2 ml injections over the last 10 days. My questions are: Which tests can I do to check iron levels, as I suspect low iron may be causing low hemoglobin? How can I alleviate these symptoms, and how many more B12 injections might I need, considering I am on PPI for GERD, which caused these issues? I may need to continue PPI for a few more months as GERD is almost resolved. I would also like tips to increase my hemoglobin and RBC levels.
