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 sit for 8-12 hours in gaps as I'm a govt-job aspirant... lately i have been facing obesity,grey hair, extreme hair loss, foot pain or uneasiness in foot at nights while sleeping, swelling in foot, dark finger knuckles also i want to get my gut and liver checked cuz of frequent acid reflux I really want to start taking supplements for deficiencies though I'm already on a healthy diet under a nutritionist.... i also take breaks to walk a little...

I am suffering from diabetes for last 12 years and my weight is 112 kgs. I'm taking regular medication of diabetes. I want to start oempic. How do I go ahead with it? My earlier doctor once suggested me. But now I am transferred to Mumbai and before starting I want to consult a doctor.
Vitamin D is 9.61 ng/ml Normal range 30-100
B12 is 181 pg/ml Normal range 211-912
Please provide suggestion for Vitamin D and B12
My blood reports had vitamin D3 of 9.8. Post that I took 60,000IU once a week for 4 weeks.
Post 1 week, can I start supplementing 5000 IU of vitamin D3 and k2 daily for 3 months?
Please suggest, if it is okay or I should minimise the dosage?
I am at a sitting job, I don't get enough time to have sunlight as well.
