Hi XXXXXXX
Vitamin B12 is an essential nutrient for formation of DNA - the genetic basis of all of us. Hence a defeciency of the same affects all cells and is more apperent in those having a high turn over rate like the GI tract and the blood cells
Vit B12 defeciency can cause digestion problems, belching is usually not seen with it. Sometimes the cause of Vit B12 defeciency, like gastritis may produce these symptoms. You may continue the medications prescibed and take a vit B12 XXXXXXX diet - Non Veg, milk products, egg
