Question 1

Hi doctor I am a student of class 12 preparing for IIT. For the past few months I have been facing a problem of forgetting things very easily. I can remember things for short term but it is very difficult for me to remember things for long term. I am facing a lot of problems because of this. I have been searching for a solution but have not found anything that really helps. Three months ago I consulted a psychiatrist but the medicine was not suitable for me as it caused shivering in my limbs. I have tried many exercises but nothing helps in the long run. I also try different methods of remembering things like visualization or linking information with events but it is very difficult to do every time. Please help me doctor. I shall be really grateful if I could get out of this situation. I am sharing my report of consultation with the psychiatrist please have a look at it?

Question 2

My recent lab test report shows:
Vitamin B12: 174.6 pg/mL
Hydroxy Vitamin D3: 14.82 ng/mL
Could you please suggest what this means and what steps or supplements I should take to correct these levels?

Question 3

Hi, I have severe dark circles. I have tried retinol but it did not have much effect. My mother also has this problem but mine is more prominent. I do a computer job which worsens the situation. The dark circles are brown in color. Which tests should I undergo before taking any vitamin supplements?

Slightly low. Supplementation (oral or injectable) is safe and effective. Natural sources alone may take longer.
