Question 1

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.

Question 2

I have been suffering from hand tremors and muscle weakness, which affect my ability to perform daily tasks. My hands shake a lot, causing me embarrassment, and this has been happening since I was around 14 to 15 years old. A doctor advised hormonal tests, and my report shows the following:
S.Free T4 is 1.09 ng per dl (Reference range 0.8 to 2.0)
S.TSH (Ultrasensitive) is 2.4 uIU per ml (Reference range 0.4 to 4.5)
Active Vitamin B12 (HoloTc) is 36 pmol per L (Reference range 30 to 165)
Are these test results normal? Is my report normal? Also, what could be the actual cause of my hand tremors and muscle weakness?
