For the past 20 days, I have been experiencing stiffness in the fingers of both hands when bending them, along with frequent popping or cracking sounds in my fingers, wrists, and shoulder joints. I have tested negative for Rheumatoid Arthritis. In my recent blood tests, my random blood sugar level was 155 (normal range is 70 to 140), and my Vitamin B12 serum level was 932 (normal range is 200 to 900). Additionally, my MCH and MCV levels are low, and my Mean Platelet Volume is higher than the normal range. I would like to know what these findings indicate about my health, and why my Vitamin B12 level is elevated. What could the test report suggest?

Mild hyperglycemia and vitamin B12 supplementation could explain findings. Joint symptoms may be early arthritis. Monitor sugar and consult rheumatologist.

Does a full blood count detect diabetes?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

For the past two months, I have been experiencing leg and body pain, along with a persistent feeling of tiredness, especially after office hours. This fatigue is significantly affecting both my personal and professional life. I have been regularly taking calcium (Cipcal 500) and multivitamin (ME 12 OD) supplements. I also underwent a complete blood check-up, and all reports, including Vitamin D levels, came back within normal limits. Despite this, the symptoms persist. I would request suggestions for suitable treatment, homeopathic or Ayurvedic options, if possible. I am also open to allopathic recommendations if needed.
