My latest blood report shows that I have low Vitamin B12 at 102 which should be above 211 and a high uric acid level of 9.5 which should be below 7. I need to know if I can take a Vitamin B12 tablet called Cobal 500 mcg Mecobalamin to increase my Vitamin B12 levels.

Yes, Cobal 500 is safe to improve B12 levels. Also increase intake of B12 rich foods like dairy and eggs. For uric acid, drink more water and limit red meat and alcohol. Please repeat B12 and uric acid tests after 6 to 8 weeks to monitor your response to treatment.

Why am I vitamin B12 deficient even though I eat a lot of meat?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

Sir, I have been continuously suffering from pain in the back portion of my left foot. After consulting an orthopedic doctor, he suggested a blood test for uric acid and prescribed some medicines. However, after almost two months, I have not fully recovered. Now, my left hand forefingers have also started hurting. I also consulted a urologist, who said my uric acid levels are normal and advised me to get it checked by a neurologist. Kindly suggest the possible remedies for this problem.
