Hey, my lab reference range for vitamin B12 is 187 to 883 pg/ml, and my test result is 341 pg/ml. Is this considered normal, or do I have a B12 deficiency? I am 17 years old.

Hi doctor, in March 2021 I fell on my knee while playing sports. I waited for 3 months and still had some pain, so I visited an orthopedic in June. Without any lab test for vitamin D, the orthopedic prescribed 60000 IU syrup per day for 11 continuous days. This led to a vitamin D level of 120 ng/ml. It has been 5 months and I still have several symptoms from July until now. I have a feeling of my head shaking, headaches, hand tremors, eye twitching, knee and muscle pains, chest tightness, difficulty in breathing, twitching like tremor all over the body, weakness, and very hot urine. My serum calcium level has been between 10.5 and 11 mg/dl for the past 5 months, now 11 mg/dl. Vitamin D now is 46 ng/ml. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is 75.67 pg/ml. Uric acid has been between 9.6 and 7 mg/dl, now 7 mg/dl. Creatinine is 0.9 mg/dl. Vitamin B12 is 196 pg/ml. Thyroid: T3 is 0.85 ng/ml, T4 is 6.88 ug/dl, TSH is 3.82 uIU/ml. Blood pH is 8.6. Magnesium is 1.6 mg/dl. What could be the cause of these ongoing symptoms and what should I do?
