Hello, I am Dr Romain Rajan, General Physician. Your case has been allotted to me.
I understand your concern.
Vitamin B12 deficiency and
Vitamin D deficiency together can cause a wide range of symptoms, and many patients feel very confused until these deficiencies are identified.
Both deficiencies explain the majority of your problems very clearly.
Advices
1 Eat regular balanced meals and include eggs, milk, curd and paneer to support recovery naturally.
2 Expose your skin to early morning sunlight for ten to fifteen minutes daily to support Vitamin D correction.
3 Avoid heavy physical work or long standing until your energy levels improve.
What to Monitor
1 Numbness or tingling in hands and feet.
2 Sudden weakness or tiredness even after rest.
3 Mood changes, irritability or sleep disturbance.
Management
Vitamin B12 deficiency causes nerve pain, numbness, hand and leg weakness, burning sensation, mood changes and tiredness.
Vitamin D deficiency causes muscle pain, bone pain, lower back pain, joint pain and severe fatigue.
When both are low at the same time, symptoms become stronger and recovery takes longer without proper treatment.
You will likely need
⢠Weekly high dose Vitamin D for at least six to eight weeks
⢠Vitamin B12 supplementation, either injections or high strength tablets
⢠A mild nerve vitamin combination to reduce nerve irritation
⢠A short rest period if you have physical workload
Your body will start responding within two to three weeks of correct treatment. After discussing your exact levels, symptoms and work pattern, I can guide you with the correct doses and duration.
When to Consult a Doctor Immediately
1 If numbness spreads rapidly.
2 If you feel sudden severe dizziness or weakness.
3 If pain becomes unbearable or affects walking.
Every patientâs situation is unique. For accurate diagnosis and lasting relief, it is important to discuss your medical history and symptoms in detail.
You can reach out to me directly for this case and also connect with me in future for any medical consultation. I am available on Practo or on WhatsApp at 85271646 seven seven for a one on one consultation where you will receive
1 A personalised treatment plan
2 Safe medicine adjustments if required
3 Quick follow ups to track your recovery
Take care, wishing you good health.
