Vitamin B12 deficiency: Know the symptoms and how to address them
Vitamin B-12 is crucial to produce blood cells. Symptoms of vitamin B-12 deficiency include fatigue, low mood, and nerve problems.
Normal range of RBCs is 4.5 to 5.5 million cells/cubic mm of blood. Low levels of RBC means decreased oxygen supply to the body leading to fatigue and weakness or anaemia. Decreased levels of RBCs are seen in iron deficiency anaemia, thalassemia, stomach ulcers, sickle cell anaemia and certain cancers. If the levels of RBCs are higher than normal, they stick to each other, form clumps and block blood vessels. High levels are seen in case of chronic smokers, alcoholics and in people with long-term lung, kidney, heart or liver disease. RBC counts may also be increased in cases of dehydration, burns, diarrhoea and vomiting.
