In my recent blood test, my Vitamin D25 level is 22 ng/mL and Vitamin B12 is 163 pg/mL. Could you please suggest appropriate supplements or medications to correct these deficiencies?

Both are low. You need Vitamin D3 supplements and Vitamin B12 injections or tablets. Also increase sun exposure and intake of fortified foods.

Dr. Siri Suggests...

Take a 25-HYDROXY VITAMIN D (D2+D3) Test or Take a VITAMIN B12 Test

My wife has been experiencing burning sensations in her feet. On investigation, we found that her Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D levels are low. She is a pure vegetarian and does not consume eggs. Could these vitamin deficiencies be the cause of her problem? I am attaching the report for your review.

I am taking diabetic medication, Uprise D3 weekly, and Rejunex CD3 daily for the last 3 days but I am feeling tired and have a little headache. Do I need to start some medication to increase iron and RBC along with the above medication? My blood report shows iron count 55 and RBC count 4.44.

I have had tingling sensations in my hands and legs for the last 3 years, but I have not checked my vitamin B12. Yesterday, I took my first tablet of vitamin B12, 1500 mcg. I am planning to go for the test tomorrow. My concern is, will the tablet I took affect my test report or show any false results since I have taken it only once?
