I recently found out that I have a deficiency in vitamin B12 and vitamin D. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what might be causing this. Are there specific reasons why these deficiencies could happen? Also, what are the best options or medicines available to treat a B12 deficiency? Would love some guidance.

View allI'm feeling really stressed because for the past five months I've been having this constant feeling of my body being hot to the touch, but all my HIV tests have turned out negative. I've done the p24 test, the Western Blot, and the HIV PCR RNA Quantitative. It's really concerning me because I also feel like I have an internal fever. Could there be something else causing these symptoms or should I be looking into other tests? What steps should I take next?
It's important to seek help and talk to someone about what you're going through. In terms of the fever, if it has been persistent and you're feeling unwell, you may need to consider taking some medication to help reduce the fever. You can take Acetaminophen (Tylenol) 500mg every 4-6 hours as needed for fever. However, it's crucial to address the underlying issues causing you distress. Please reach out to a mental health professional or counselor for support.

I've been dealing with a cold, runny nose, and a slight fever since this morning. Now I've lost my sense of smell and taste. Should I be worried? Does this sound like COVID or just a regular flu? And how long might it take for my taste and smell to come back? Would love some advice.
Losing smell and taste, combined with cold, runny nose, and slight fever, could be indicative of COVID-19, but it's also possible with other viral infections like the common flu; to determine the cause, consider getting a COVID-19 test, rest, stay hydrated, and use over-the-counter medications to alleviate symptoms; your sense of smell and taste should return once the infection resolves, usually within 7-14 days.
