Low folate levels advice please

[Thisyearisshit]

Hi

I have been suffering from other dizzy spells/ light headedness for about 7 weeks now. At first I thought it was Labyrinthitis but I’m also exhausted tinnitus headaches etc so I spoke to the doctor. She took bloods and tested calcium, thyroid, folate, iron, b12 etc and low folate levels have come back. I have been prescribed 5mg once a day.
Anybody had this? And how long for the tablets to kick in? I just wanna feel normal again

How is your diet?

Yes I had this last year, dizziness was also my main symptom. I thought I already ate a fairly good diet, but I made sure I had cereal each day and broccoli, spinach, leafy veg a few times a week. My levels were normal after 3m so I now take an off the shelf supplement to maintain it.

Hope you feel better soon
