Persistent Vitamin B12 deficiency

2017-04-07 16:29:06
Hello I keep getting tested for Vitamin B12 at regular intervals from past 3 years. But it is always below 200(minimum level). ALthough I am a hard core non-vegetarian, once It went to 60-70. Now I am worried and wanna consult. Please Suggest should I consult a general physician or any particular specialist.
