If you are a male with a score of 15.1 then there is a possibility that you may be suffering from an infection.

Dr. Bhanu Suggests...

Take a APTT Test (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) Test or Take a Anti Cardiolipin AB IgM Test

Is there any relationship between vitamin B12 and liver? I have B12 deficiency even though I am non vegetarian (homocysteine is normal). My liver report shows indirect bilirubin 1.19, total bilirubin 1.39, and GGT 67, which are beyond the normal range. Is there any connection between the B12 deficiency and liver report? Last year I had acidity issues and the doctor prescribed Pantocid and Refagut 400 for 30 days. I also have excess vitamin K in my test report. I am non alcoholic.

Hi doctor, in March 2021 I fell on my knee while playing sports. I waited for 3 months and still had some pain, so I visited an orthopedic in June. Without any lab test for vitamin D, the orthopedic prescribed 60000 IU syrup per day for 11 continuous days. This led to a vitamin D level of 120 ng/ml. It has been 5 months and I still have several symptoms from July until now. I have a feeling of my head shaking, headaches, hand tremors, eye twitching, knee and muscle pains, chest tightness, difficulty in breathing, twitching like tremor all over the body, weakness, and very hot urine. My serum calcium level has been between 10.5 and 11 mg/dl for the past 5 months, now 11 mg/dl. Vitamin D now is 46 ng/ml. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) is 75.67 pg/ml. Uric acid has been between 9.6 and 7 mg/dl, now 7 mg/dl. Creatinine is 0.9 mg/dl. Vitamin B12 is 196 pg/ml. Thyroid: T3 is 0.85 ng/ml, T4 is 6.88 ug/dl, TSH is 3.82 uIU/ml. Blood pH is 8.6. Magnesium is 1.6 mg/dl. What could be the cause of these ongoing symptoms and what should I do?
