View allI'm feeling really tired after work lately, and my memory seems to be getting weaker. I've also noticed some bone pain and I think it might be related to a vitamin deficiency like B12 or D6, which I've seen in earlier reports but didn't pay much attention to. Which type of doctor should I visit to get this checked out?
You should consult a **general physician** or a **nutritionist** to address your vitamin deficiencies. They can help with diagnosis and provide a treatment plan, which may include vitamin supplements or dietary adjustments. If needed, they might refer you to a specialist, such as an **endocrinologist** or **rheumatologist**, depending on your symptoms.

I accidentally took Allegra 120mg once in the afternoon and then again at night. Should I be worried about that? Are there any serious side effects from taking it twice like this?
If you mistakenly take two doses of Allegra 120mg in a day, there may be an increased risk of side effects such as drowsiness, dry mouth, and headache. It is important to stick to the recommended dosage of one tablet (120mg) per day to avoid potential adverse effects. If you have taken two doses in a day, monitor yourself for any unusual symptoms and consider skipping the next dose to prevent further complications.
