In my opinion, you have just the right amount of symptoms. I did not know that the symptoms I am having (tiredness) could be linked to vitamin C deficiency. But, I will up the vitamin C rich foods to my diet.
I eat only certified organic produce or organic produce from local organic farmers because the use of herbicides (being mineral chelators) can block the mineral nutrients from being taken up by the plants. And although I don't understand how the good bacteria in our bodies creates vitamins, the more toxic agriculture the less nutrition, I've learned from scientific studies. Hence, I stick to organically grown produce and eating vegan definitely helps me obtain nutrition with a nutrition-rich vegan diet.

There's only one way to know for sure which you did say... get regular blood work. But I might add that you need to specifically request a micronutrient test.
A micronutrient test measures your body’s absorption of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and other essential nutrients into your white blood cells. Getting one of these non-fasting micronutrient blood test tells you if you have a vitamin deficiency and gives you a plan of action how to correct it.

I agree that it would be nice to put what vitamins we may be deficient in along with the symptoms.

It would have been helpful if each symptom had been followed by the name of the main vitamin deficiency causing it, as was done only with Vitamin A deficiency and its symptoms. Then the reader would know what action to take.
