My symptoms are similar to restless leg syndrome: tingling sensation under feet, leg pain, fatigue, drowsiness, etc. I have done blood tests, thyroid, kidney, and liver tests and all are normal. Please help me with this as I have been suffering for 2 years. I have used some multivitamin and mineral tablets.

Your symptoms tingling in feet, leg pain, fatigue, and drowsiness, do match signs of Restless Leg Syndrome or mild neuropathy. Even if major tests (thyroid, kidney, liver) are normal, its worth checking for Vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Iron, and Magnesium levels. Deficiencies in these can affect nerve health. If symptoms continue, a nerve conduction study (NCS) may help pinpoint the issue.
Dr. Bhanu Suggests...
Take a Ferritin Test Test or Take a Vitamin B12 Test Test

View allHello sir, I am 18 years old and currently in class 12. For the past 7 to 8 months, I have been facing problems with my studies. I am not able to remember what I studied an hour ago, and the same happens with other events like remembering someone name or the path I have travelled. This makes me anxious. My family is very supportive but has an old thought pattern, so it was difficult to convince them to take me to a psychiatrist. Finally, I went to Patna AIIMS and had a consultation with a psychiatrist. The problem is that after taking the medicines, I experienced vomiting, restlessness, sweating, and loss of appetite. Without consulting the doctor, my parents forced me to stop the medicines. The medicines were 1) Sertraline Daxid 50 and 2) Etizolam 0.25 mg. Now I do not have trouble sleeping or eating, but I still have the problem of forgetting things. I am attaching my report. It is impossible to convince my parents again. Please suggest the best course. Shall I take the medicine.

Hi, I recently received my ANC profile which shows low MCHC but elevated RDW CV and RDW SD values, while my hemoglobin is 12.7. I maintain a very healthy lifestyle with regular strength training and cardio, and I avoid fried and junk food. I am worried about the cause, some articles suggest deficiencies in folate, iron, or vitamin B12, but I have been taking folvite for the last 10 days. Since folic acid is crucial for the baby CNS development, I am quite anxious and want to know how to correct these values. Given my age and my father history of bypass surgery, my doctor has also prescribed daily heparin injections, which I have been taking for the last 4 days. Please advise on what I can do to bring these values back to normal. I have attached my report

I recently received my Vitamin B12 test report, and the result is 113 pg per mL, which is quite low. I had this test done because I have been feeling low on energy for a long time.
