I have been having mild, constant pain in my arms and legs and tingling in my face and tongue for the past six months. The problem is more pronounced after exercise or even brisk walking. I have developed sensitivity to sound and an odd metallic taste in my mouth. My blood reports, including vitamin B12 and D3, are normal. Only my total cholesterol and LDL are low at 43. Fatigue is constant, and sometimes joint pain also occurs.

These symptoms may be neurological or metabolic. Low LDL is not worrisome alone. Sensory changes need evaluation. Consult neurologist.

View allMy latest blood report shows that I have low Vitamin B12 at 102 which should be above 211 and a high uric acid level of 9.5 which should be below 7. I need to know if I can take a Vitamin B12 tablet called Cobal 500 mcg Mecobalamin to increase my Vitamin B12 levels.

My wife, age 34, underwent pituitary tumor surgery 3 years ago. Her recent blood report shows Vitamin B12 is 927 pg/mL, hemoglobin is 10 g/dL, and PCV is 31 percent. She has been experiencing heavy gastric issues that do not subside even with medications like PPIs. Additionally, she has an enlarging fibroid. Her weight is 67 kg and blood pressure is 90/70 mmHg. Could you please advise how to reduce the heavy gas and manage her gastric discomfort effectively?

Hi doctor, I have been experiencing knee joint pain for the past six months. I feel pain mainly while running and climbing stairs. Initially, the pain was more severe, but it has now reduced, although there is still some discomfort. I consulted an orthopaedic specialist earlier and had an X ray done, which came back normal. He prescribed some pain relief medication, which helped reduce the pain. The issue started after I followed a strict healthy diet for two months. My recent blood report is also normal. Please suggest what I should do next.
