Hi,
Often a lot of problems are attributed falsely to low vitamin d levels. That's not the cause of your tingling sensation.
Ideally we need to fully understand what is causing these symptoms.
Do consult when feasible

**Specialist Doctor's Response:**
**Re: Persistent Tingling in Hands & Feet (Vitamin D/B12 Related?)**
Dear Patient,
Your **tingling (pins-and-needles sensation)** in palms and feet, despite completing a Vitamin D course, suggests possible **neuropathy**. Here’s a detailed analysis:
---
### **Potential Causes to Investigate:**
1. **Vitamin B12 Deficiency (Even at 234 pg/mL)**
- **Optimal B12** is >400 pg/mL for nerve health. Your level is borderline.
- **Action**: Methylcobalamin supplements (1500 mcg/day) for 3 months.
2. **Diabetes/Pre-Diabetes**
- **Check**: Fasting glucose, HbA1c (as suggested by other doctors).
3. **Other Deficiencies**
- **Magnesium/Potassium** (Essential for nerve function).
4. **Nerve Compression**
- **Carpal Tunnel Syndrome** (Hands) or **Sciatica** (Feet).
---
### **Immediate Steps:**
✔ **Repeat B12 Test** (Active B12/Homocysteine levels).
✔ **EMG/Nerve Conduction Study** (If tingling worsens).
✔ **Diet**: Eggs, dairy, lean meat (B12); nuts/seeds (Magnesium).
---
### **When to Worry?**
⚠️ **Weakness, burning pain, or balance issues** → Requires urgent evaluation.
---
**For a personalized treatment plan, consult me.**
