Predominantly macrocytic normochromic with macroovalocytes. I have uploaded my report here. Please help me understand the diagnosis?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have been having mild, constant pain in my arms and legs and tingling in my face and tongue for the past six months. The problem is more pronounced after exercise or even brisk walking. I have developed sensitivity to sound and an odd metallic taste in my mouth. My blood reports, including vitamin B12 and D3, are normal. Only my total cholesterol and LDL are low at 43. Fatigue is constant, and sometimes joint pain also occurs.

I need assistance regarding foods and supplements to help recover my vitamin levels, which are very low according to my recent report (screenshot attached). I have also been experiencing severe back pain since August 2019, and it is been almost a year now. I am not sure what to do. Please suggest some advice or guidance.
