View allI've recently taken my mom for a health check-up, and her results showed that she's low on Vitamin B12 and Vitamin D. Her Vitamin B12 level is 133 pgml, and her Vitamin D is 12.5 ngml. I'm really concerned and would love to know what might be causing these deficiencies and what kind of treatments are available. Also, which type of specialist should we see to get this sorted out?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can be caused by poor diet, malabsorption issues, or certain medications, while vitamin D deficiency often results from inadequate sun exposure or poor dietary intake. Treatment typically involves supplements and dietary adjustments. It's best to consult a general physician or a specialist in nutrition or endocrinology for further guidance and treatment.

Im really worried because I can feel my heart rate is really high and fast, even when I'm just resting. Its been at 94-95 bpm since this afternoon, and I'm not sure why. I have hypothyroidism and Im on 25 mcg of thyronorm. Could that be affecting my heart rate? I'm kinda scared. Any advice would really help.
Given the situation, it's essential to take precautions. Consult a doctor immediately, as cat scratchesbites can transmit rabies and tetanus. Even without visible wounds or symptoms, it's crucial to consider post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for rabies. Tetanus injection is recommended, especially since your last booster was in 2016. Antirabies injection might be necessary, depending on the doctor's assessment. Don't delay; seek attention within 24-48 hours.
