Hi, I am experiencing a burning and needle prick type sensation in my arms, legs, and buttocks. My recent blood tests show Vitamin D level: 19 and Vitamin B12 level: 810. Please advise the possible cause and next steps.

Burning and pinching in arms, legs, and buttocks is often due to nerve irritation or deficiency. Your Vitamin D is low (19), this can cause nerve pain and weakness. Vitamin B12 is good (810), so that is not the issue here. Start Vitamin D supplements and light sun exposure.
Dr. Vasanthasree Suggests...
Take a Vitamin D Test Test or Take a HbA1c Test (Hemoglobin A1c) Test

I am suffering from vitamin D deficiency, with a level of 8.83 ng/mL. I have been taking D3 Must 60K chewable tablets (1 tablet weekly) from Mankind Pharma and have taken 4 tablets over the past month. Is this safe? If not, what is the alternative and the proper dosage for my level of deficiency? If it is safe, how much longer should I continue this regimen, or should I adjust the frequency (for example, one tablet monthly)? I have attached my report for reference and would like guidance on the correct dosage based on my deficiency.
