View allI'm feeling a bit worried because a few weeks ago, I started experiencing this tingling pins-and-needles sensation in my feet and hands. It seems to happen in my feet mostly when I'm sitting cross-legged. I went to my doctor, did some tests for vitamin B12, vitamin D, and thyroid, and it turned out my vitamin D was really low, at 29 nmolL. I've been taking vitamin D tablets, but the tingling is still there when I sit a certain way. Plus, my hands get super dry at night. Could all these be related to the vitamin D deficiency?
The tingling sensation in your feet and hands, especially when sitting with legs crossed, and dry hands at night, may be partially related to Vitamin D deficiency, but other factors like poor circulation, nerve compression, or peripheral neuropathy might also contribute; continue taking Vitamin D supplements and consult your doctor to rule out other underlying causes and consider additional tests or referrals to a specialist if necessary.

I'm a bit confused about some medical stuff. So, in the context of a COVID test, what exactly does the target gene CT value mean? Like, if someone has a CT value of 17.5, is that considered low or high? Also, if a person has thyroid issues, do the medicines change if they get COVID?
The target gene CT value in a COVID-19 test represents the number of cycles needed to detect the virus's genetic material, with lower values (e.g., 17.5) indicating a higher viral load, while higher values suggest a lower viral load or potential false positive; regarding thyroid conditions, COVID-19 treatment does not typically involve thyroid medications, but underlying thyroid conditions may require adjustments to existing medications or additional supportive care.
