I have worked through your attached reports in detail

Reports of your wife XXXXXXX show
- Severe Vitamin D and B12 deficiency

Rest of the reports are within normal limits.

Majority of the lab abnormalities are because of severe vitamin D and B12 deficiency. These parameters will correct with correction of Vitamin D and B12 deficiency.

I generally prescribe oral medications of Cholecalciferol and Methylcobalamin to my patients with such vitamin deficiencies. Please check with your physician if he shares my view and if can prescribe these medications to you.
