A member asked:

I'm b12 deficiency and getting injections i'm also peri menopause.im lightheaded and have tingling in my fingertips.please why is this happening.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need more info: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor. It is likely that you may be deficient in other nutrients also. Try taking multivitamin tablet daily. Light exercise each day may help. Discuss taking hormone replacement with your doctor.
