Question 1

My Vitamin B12 is 163, which is below the normal range. I am experiencing tingling, numbness, weakness, shortness of breath, fatigue, tiredness, and body pain. I have taken Vitcofol 6, 2 ml injections over the last 10 days. My questions are:
Which tests can I do to check iron levels, as I suspect low iron may be causing low hemoglobin?
How can I alleviate these symptoms, and how many more B12 injections might I need, considering I am on PPI for GERD, which caused these issues? I may need to continue PPI for a few more months as GERD is almost resolved.
I would also like tips to increase my hemoglobin and RBC levels.

Question 2

Hi, Is it safe to take vitamin tablets daily? If so, which ones should I take? I have been diagnosed with Vitamin D deficiency, and I am considering taking all vitamin supplements regularly.

Question 3

Hello sir, I am 18 years old and currently in class 12. For the past 7 to 8 months, I have been facing problems with my studies. I am not able to remember what I studied an hour ago, and the same happens with other events like remembering someone name or the path I have travelled. This makes me anxious. My family is very supportive but has an old thought pattern, so it was difficult to convince them to take me to a psychiatrist. Finally, I went to Patna AIIMS and had a consultation with a psychiatrist. The problem is that after taking the medicines, I experienced vomiting, restlessness, sweating, and loss of appetite. Without consulting the doctor, my parents forced me to stop the medicines. The medicines were 1) Sertraline Daxid 50 and 2) Etizolam 0.25 mg. Now I do not have trouble sleeping or eating, but I still have the problem of forgetting things. I am attaching my report. It is impossible to convince my parents again. Please suggest the best course. Shall I take the medicine.

Please advise on my attached report. I have back pain issues and pain in the right leg knee. I have had pelvis fat loss for the last one year and also a little pain in the neck?

Back pain radiating to the leg could suggest nerve compression. Pelvis fat loss may need metabolic or neurological evaluation. Consulting a neurologist or spine specialist can help.
