Mike, a 39 year old overweight male, calls and asks if you can fit some time in for him today; he's experiencing some "weird stuff" and doesn't want to overreact by going to the ER, but he thinks it might be important. You ask him to describe the symptoms over the phone so that he can get to the ER immediately if it sounds like a real emergency. The man says he's been nauseous and feels "flushed" and hot and sweating like crazy. The thing that really freaked him out was that his vision seems blurred. What is the vitamin/mineral toxicity or deficiency of the patient? Cite sources.
The patient may have :
TOxicity of vitamin b12
supplementing with excessively high levels of B12 has been linked to some negative side effects
