Question 1

Hi, I am experiencing numbness in the last two fingers of my right hand, mostly in the mornings when I wake up. I am not diabetic (post meal sugar: 133). Previously, I had significant drooping of my right eyelid, which was evaluated by neurologists and an ophthalmologist, and nerve tests were normal, only vitamin deficiencies were found. After taking vitamins, my eyelid improved. However, now this intermittent numbness in my fingers every alternate morning is worrying me. Could this indicate a serious condition that I need to be alert about? Please advise. Thank you in advance.

Question 2

Due to skin allergy and hair loss I consulted a skin doctor. My lab report shows vitamin B12 deficiency and very low ferritin levels, but the skin doctor did not give any treatment for that. Please help me and give suggestions as I am in urgent need?

Question 3

Sir a 47 year old woman has been suffering from acute attacks of vertigo with general weakness for the past one year. Her blood report is attached. Please provide diagnosis and treatment advice. Her fasting blood sugar is 85. Thank you.

Why am I vitamin B12 deficient even though I eat a lot of meat?

It is because there is a high possibility that your body is unable to absorb the vitamin B12 available in the foods you are consuming.
