Hi,
Please get Blood tests for vitamin B12 and D3 first- If they are below normal then you need supplementation. Omega fatty acids are not vitamins. In deficiency diseases, the medicines take some time for the effects to come.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Gopal Goel, Orthopaedic Surgeon
