Both the tests are very similiar. However, hemogram test contains ESR test while, CBC doesnt contain ESR test.

Dr. Shaik Suggests...

Take a Apollo Heart Superior Test or Take a SCRUB TYPHUS IgG /IgM - RAPID Test

I consulted a doctor because I was having balance problems and vertigo, and I was told I have a vitamin B12 deficiency. My test result showed a level of 193. The doctor prescribed Neurobion Forte, Monobe (thiamine), and a multivitamin. I have been taking these medicines for the past 22 days. Although my symptoms have improved, I still have some problems. How long will it take to fully recover?

In my recent blood test, my Vitamin D25 level is 22 ng/mL and Vitamin B12 is 163 pg/mL. Could you please suggest appropriate supplements or medications to correct these deficiencies?
