I'm really worried about my mom's health. About a year ago, her B12 levels were found to be around 1800 pgml, but the doctor didn't really look into it much. She recently had Chikungunya, and her CBC showed a high TLC of 14300 cellsmcmm with high polymorphs at 78 and low lymphocytes at 11. Her kidney function was normal, but her liver tests showed SGPT at 40 and alkaline phosphatase at 325. I read online that high B12 levels can be linked to some serious diseases. She's 5 ft tall, weighs 52 kg, and doesn't have any current medical issues. Do you think I should be concerned and possibly get her checked out by a doctor?

I've been dealing with a fever for about three days now and I've tried taking paracetamol and tromanil forte, which got my body temperature back to normal. But I'm still feeling really weak and achy. Everything I eat tastes bitter and I haven't been able to eat properly for the last couple of days. Could someone give me some advice on what I should do?
