hi
Thanks for your query

i can feel your concerns

you should take vitamin B COMPLEX in standard dose.donot take extra vitamins without consulting your doctor as it has major side effects too
fatigue and dizziness are the symptoms of anaemia
i advise you to recheck your iron profile and if found low,then take iron supplements cautiously after consulting your doctor
improve your diet.add green leafy vegetables and fresh fruits to your diet
deworm and also add milk and calcium supplements after consulting your doctor

i am available for your help
regards
