Hi Doctor, I reviewed my recent blood reports and would appreciate your advice.
* Folate (B9): 3.5 ng/mL (low)
* Vitamin B12: 245 pg/mL (low-normal)
* Vitamin D: 31.4 ng/mL (sufficient)
* Magnesium: 2.21 mg/dL (normal)
* Homocysteine: 22.7 µmol/L (elevated)
* CRP: 29.93 mg/L and ESR: 25 mm/hr (elevated)
Could you advise whether I need folic acid and/or B12 supplements, any additional tests, and when to repeat them? I’m also experiencing persistent calf and lower-leg pain. Could these results contribute to the pain, or do I need further investigations? My recent dental treatment may be relevant to the elevated CRP.
Thank you.
I am 23years old , 37 kg weight, 166 cm height .
i never gained weight more than 42 kg and it wont be consistent at all.
I have a good appetite, i feel hungry, and crave for food all the time and i am not a picky eater.
How can i gain weight faster ?
What should i do?
I feel like my food doesn't digest, sometimes I eat only 1 meal a day and still feel bloated and pukish.
I was 50 kg when I was in school.But from some years my weight has gone down.I am 44 kg now.My BMI is underweight.How to gain weight.

Symptoms: fatigue, neck stiffness, anxiety, calf muscle cramps.
Note: I have hypothyroidism and my tsh is 7.21 and t4 -5.44 and t3 is 78
