A vitamin D level of 6 is very low. You may need high dose vitamin D supplements (e.g. 60,000 IU weekly for 6 to 8 weeks) under medical supervision, followed by maintenance dose and sunlight exposure.

I have pain in my hands and legs, but there is no swelling. My blood report, sugar, BP, and CBP are all normal. This has been happening for the last 15 days and it is not affecting my routine activities. What could be the cause?

My report came today which shows 315 nmol vitamin D hydroxy. I have already taken Lumia 60k today. What should I do. Is this a medical emergency?

I am in the IT profession and have been suffering from lower back pain for 2 years. I got a Vitamin D3 test done today and the result shows a level of 6.9 ng/ml. Does this mean I have a deficiency? If so, what are the risks and what are the ways to increase Vitamin D levels? Thanks.
