I'm really worried about my sister. She's been experiencing dizziness quite frequently in the past 78 months, and it's getting more common now. We went to see a doctor and did all her blood tests, and everything is normal except her Vitamin D levels, which are lower than they should be. She's 33 years old.

Yes, Vitamin D deficiency can cause symptoms beyond dizziness, including fatigue, muscle weakness, joint pain, mood changes (depression, anxiety), headaches, and cognitive impairment,
