Vitamin B12 Deficiency
A vitamin B12 deficiency could create a multitude of symptoms. Individuals with insufficient amounts of the vitamin in their bodies could experience bouts of breathlessness, pins and needles in the hands and feet, mood swings and yellowing of the skin.
An individual's inability to produce red blood cells due to a deficiency could bring on bouts of fatigue and in severe cases, nerves could become affected. This could cause an unpleasant metallic taste in the mouth.
