Question 1

My symptoms are similar to restless leg syndrome: tingling sensation under feet, leg pain, fatigue, drowsiness, etc. I have done blood tests, thyroid, kidney, and liver tests and all are normal. Please help me with this as I have been suffering for 2 years. I have used some multivitamin and mineral tablets.

Question 2

Hi doctor, in March 2021 I fell on my knee while playing sports. I waited for 3 months and still had some pain, so I visited an orthopedic in June. Without any lab test for vitamin D, the orthopedic prescribed 60000 IU syrup per day for 11 continuous days. This led to a vitamin D level of 120 ng/ml. It has been 5 months and I still have several symptoms from July until now. I have a feeling of my head shaking, headaches, hand tremors, eye twitching, knee and muscle pains, chest tightness, difficulty in breathing, twitching like tremor all over the body, weakness, and very hot urine. My serum calcium level has been between 10.5 and 11 mg/dl for the past 5 months, now 11 mg/dl. Vitamin D now is 46 ng/ml. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is 75.67 pg/ml. Uric acid has been between 9.6 and 7 mg/dl, now 7 mg/dl. Creatinine is 0.9 mg/dl. Vitamin B12 is 196 pg/ml. Thyroid: T3 is 0.85 ng/ml, T4 is 6.88 ug/dl, TSH is 3.82 uIU/ml. Blood pH is 8.6. Magnesium is 1.6 mg/dl. What could be the cause of these ongoing symptoms and what should I do?

Question 3

My recent lab test report shows:
Vitamin B12: 174.6 pg/mL
Hydroxy Vitamin D3: 14.82 ng/mL
Could you please suggest what this means and what steps or supplements I should take to correct these levels?

How does a CBC test show vitamin and mineral deficiencies?

CBC test is done by pricking or collecting venous blood. The test shows the nutritional status of the micronutrient blood levels of vitamins and minerals in the body. If the levels are too low, then it indicates the need of supplements which are crucial for your health.
