Your complexities go beyond the scope of this public medical education site. Your Vitamin deficiencies should be supplemented, but your picture raises concerns about an autoimmune disorder. See a hematologist ASAP. We may be able to organize this for you at our virtual consult site (www.connect@healthtap.com)
