Welcome to NeuroTalk:
I see some problems with your blood work.
Your B12 is very low. That range is over a decade outdated and has not been updated to the new low of 400pg/ml.(US units)
Was your result done in Pakistan? If so they may be using different concentrations to report.
Your TSH is high, and suggests hypothyroid issues.
Your A1C suggests you are on the way to insulin resistance and perhaps Type II diabetes.
Your white counts are a bit high too, suggesting a low grade infection.
Here is our B12 thread:
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread85103.html
I would start taking oral B12, in its activated form, ASAP.... 5mg of methylcobalamin on an empty stomach. Get retested in about 3 months, and if you are at 1000 or above, you can reduce to 1mg daily, to maintain. Stop any B12 supplements a week before testing or your result may be falsely high.
Low B12 causes balance problems and other neurological signs often before anemia becomes present. It may show as an elevated or very high normal MCV in the blood work as a flag to investigate.
Low B12 can come from a mutation called MTHFR (10-30% of adults may have this), use of some drugs (metformin and acid reducers), autoimmune disease (damage to intrinsic factor in the stomach), or diet (Veganism).
People with the MTHFR mutations who have one gene that methylates, manifest their low B12 later in life.
Hypothyroid patients may have an enlarged tongue. Burning mouth and tongue are often signs of low B12.
