Your earlier deficiencies:
• Vitamin D Deficiency (8 → now 70) → now well corrected
• Vitamin B12 Deficiency (196 → 387 → now 278) → borderline again
Next Steps
Vitamin D3:
• Now level is 70 (good)
Health Tips
• Vitamin D: sunlight exposure helps maintain levels
• B12: include dairy, eggs, non-veg (if diet allows)
• Avoid unnecessary long-term high-dose Vitamin D weekly (can lead to excess)
• Regular follow-up every 3–6 months
⚠️ Watch for:
• Persistent fatigue/tingling (B12 low)
• Very high Vit D symptoms (rare but avoid overdose)
