Am I going nutty?

For those who have not read my previous post's, Low B12/folate anaemia, B12 230ng/l folate 1.9ug/l. Haemoglobin est., 153g/l haematocrit 0.463, MCV 101.5fl MCH 330g/L. Given tablets B12 and folate 15 for one month. Well starting to stagger and feel lop sided again, pains in feet still there and almost falling over a few times. No drink needed and not what you expect when in a supermarket or anywhere else for that matter.

On top of that I've been diagnosed with a type of vasculitis, still going through up-teen test for that. To date 4 lots of full blood tests and test for other things including proteins and Complement c3 and c4. Forget what the others were for. Staggered into blood test as if I'm drunk and then had to go back because they didn't do all the tests. Then walking back to car only to find I'm bleeding like a stuck pig.

Now because of the vasculitis and symptoms have to have a scan of the upper respiratory system and at the same time a scan of the chest with whatever they give to show up the veins or what ever.

Now totally sick of it all not just the symptoms but all the blasted test's and scans. Already had to have 2 x-rays of the abdomen, scan and CT scan. Camera's up were the sun don't shine, camera down into the gut and to cap it all a camera into the bladder.

Don't get me wrong, I know they're being through but surely with the up-teen blood tests they must have some idea. Infact the only bloods they haven't done is for blood sugar and IF.

Going mad and had enough. All I want to know is whats wrong and how to treat it.
