Question 1

Hello, Could you please suggest the best vitamin D capsules or supplements? My friend vitamin D level is 15?ng/mL. I have advised her to get at least 30 minutes of morning sunlight daily.

Question 2

About 9 months ago, I was experiencing almost daily body pain, and tests revealed Vitamin D insufficiency. My doctor prescribed medication at that time, which helped significantly. Now, I am in a different state, and the pain is returning. It usually starts in one leg upon waking up and then spreads up that side of the body. What should I do to manage or diagnose this issue?

Question 3

For a few days, my mom has been suffering from leg pain. Earlier, it was in one leg, but now it happens in both legs. One day, she was sitting in one position for a long time, and when she moved, it caused a lot of pain. Now, if she sits anywhere for a long time and then gets up, she faces the same problem. She was earlier diagnosed with vitamin D deficiency and took medication for a few months but stopped as she continued to feel well. She is slightly overweight. She also had menstrual related issues in the past, such as overbleeding and abdominal pain. I do not know the exact reason behind her leg pain, but she complains that she is unable to walk when it happens. Please help and suggest treatment options. She lives alone and is working, as my father has passed away. I am also working but staying far from her. This issue arose recently. If you need any further information, please reach out to me. What could be the reason for her leg pain?

25(OH) Vitamin D is used to assess vitamin D status. Your current level (55.9) is sufficient, you may stop weekly D3 and continue monthly maintenance. B12 is 494 (normal), stop if no deficiency symptoms.
