Cold feet can be due to various reasons such as decreased blood circulation to the extremities due to atherosclerosis that is cholesterol deposition in blood vessels, nerve damage - nerves that detect temperature are not working, lean body - persons who have less body fat need to conserve more heat which happens by feet becoming cold to keep internal organs warm, normal response to cold climate.

I'm a bit worried because Ive been taking vitamin B12 injections and supplements due to a deficiency. Initially, my B12 level was 212, but now its shot up to 2000 in my latest lab test. Is having a vitamin B12 level that high dangerous, and how can I bring it down quickly? Sometimes I feel my body shakingcould that be because my B12 levels are too high?

Having a vitamin B12 level above 2000 is considered high, and it may lead to symptoms such as body shaking. To reduce the high level of vitamin B12 quickly, you should stop taking any B12 supplements or injections and consult with your healthcare provider for further guidance. They may recommend adjusting your dosage or frequency of B12 intake. In the meantime, you can focus on a diet that is low in vitamin B12-rich foods such as meat, fish, and dairy products. Make sure to stay hydrated and maintain a healthy lifestyle. If your symptoms persist or worsen, seek medical attention promptly.

I'm wondering about how long the protection lasts from tetanus toxoid shots. I never got the tetanus vaccination as a kid, but I did get 24 tetanus toxoid shots over two years, in 2016 and 2017. Is that level of vaccination enough to keep me protected, or should I consider getting another shot? Whats the typical duration of protection in cases like mine?
