I was recently told I have a low vitamin B12 level, something like 179 pgml, and my cholesterol is kind of borderline too. Lately, I've been feeling really tired, can't focus, and sometimes I get confused or even have trouble keeping my balance. Do you think I should start taking B12 supplements? If so, could you recommend a good one? I'm kind of worried about these symptoms.

View allI'm a bit confused about what "this11 after food" and "food101 after food" means when it comes to taking my meds. Is there a certain way I should be timing them around my meals?
They both mean the same thing essentially. 1 tablet to be taken after food in the morning and in the evening.

I've been taking Evion for a liver infection, just like I did two years ago for about a month, and didn't have any issues back then. But this time, after starting Evion again, I've been getting headaches for a couple of days. Once I stopped, the headaches went away. Why would Evion cause headaches now when it didn't before?

I'm dealing with acute pharyngitis and my doctor has me on Augpen three times a day, LCZ Plus twice, and Betadine gargles. But since starting these, I've been feeling super lethargic and drowsy. Is there something else I can take or do to help with this drowsiness?
