Deficiency: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, you are deficient in B12 and may need B12 injections. visit this site for info: https://www.mayoclinic.org/drugs-supplements-vitamin-b12/art-20363663 Wish you good health! - Have a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, whole grains, milk and milk products, nuts, beans, legumes, lentils and small amounts of lean meats.
