Brief Answer:
both are within normal range

Detailed Answer:
Hi Nikis,
Thanks for writing to HCM.

Your Vitamin b12 value is within normal limits.

Normal range of vitamin B 12 is 110-1500pg/ml and D3 is 30-74ng/ml.

Your D3 value is on lower side of normal range. So I suggest you to take daily early morning sun exposure for 30mins . Just when sun rise occurs. This will increase naturally vitamin D3 synthesis.

Hope I have answered your query.
