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?

Both Vitamin B12 and D3 are low. These can cause fatigue, weakness, and neurological symptoms. Supplements (oral or injectable B12, and D3 weekly sachets or tablets) can help. Discuss dosage with your doctor.

I have been experiencing dizziness and slight imbalance for the past 30 days. I have been taking Vertin tablets, but they have not helped. I underwent a CT scan of the brain, which was normal, and an ENT examination, which ruled out ear problems. I am still experiencing symptoms and also have acid reflux and stiffness from upper back to neck. Could this be due to a vitamin deficiency? I am attaching my CBC results for reference.

I have been having mild, constant pain in my arms and legs and tingling in my face and tongue for the past six months. The problem is more pronounced after exercise or even brisk walking. I have developed sensitivity to sound and an odd metallic taste in my mouth. My blood reports, including vitamin B12 and D3, are normal. Only my total cholesterol and LDL are low at 43. Fatigue is constant, and sometimes joint pain also occurs.
