[|AI|]  Hello, Low vitamin b12 occurs quite commonly due inadequate diet or worm infestation. So you should increase milk and dairy products, meat consumption. Also, need deforming with Albendazole.  Low ferritin is due to iron deficiency, either due to inadequate intake or loss. So need to stop iron supplements for 3 days and get one stool for occult blood testing. If positive then need further investigation to confirm the site of bleeding.
