Thiamine deficiency
I am suffering from POTS weakness in limbs vertigo tinnitus impaired balance consulted cardiologist and neurologist my tmt echo ecg mri brain usg abdomen cbc kft lftthyroid all normal so it's very frustrating why I am suffering from all the above mentioned symptoms then consulted another neurologist he told me that may be I am suffering from thiamine deficiency (vitb1) and vitb12. He never told me to check my vit b1 levels because there is no reliable test to check for vit b1 deficiency but my symptoms all are pointing towards b1 deficiency considering my poor diet I used to skip meals when I was working as IT professional some days only one meal per day. So my question is I want to consult someone who is trained to treat nutritional deficiencies because I think I am suffering from multi vitamin and mineral deficiencies including magnesium.
