Symptoms your husband is complaining of ,are mostly due to vitamin defeciency.Vitamin d 7.3 and B12 at 148 are quite significant. If he has other symptoms like lethargy feeling ,bodypain he could take injection vitamid cholecalciferol or if he's reluctant ,60000 iu vitamin d sachets orally, every week once ,for 15 weeks.He should have calcium supplement as well as it helps in  the absorption of vitamin d. For his vit B12 defecinecy ,he should have cyanocobalamin 1000microgram everyday or injection cyanocobalamin 1000 mcg weekly for a month and then every month once
