I got my blood report for vitamin D and the value is 6.85. I am a pure vegetarian and want to understand if I need to take any supplements?

This is severe deficiency. Sun exposure and a supplement (e.g., cholecalciferol 60,000 IU weekly for 6 to 8 weeks) are needed. Diet alone may not suffice.

View allI got an attack of mouth ulcer 1 month ago with approximately 5 big ulcers. After 3 weeks the ulcers were gone but my stomach pain started and I had harder stool. The doctor gave me medicine but small ulcers happened again and went away. The doctor did a vitamin D test and it was very low at approximately 9.36. He gave me medicine and I am on medicine. I have little weakness and back pain so I thought to do one CBC test. Please check my report and tell me if it is normal or if there is anything to worry about? Please help.

I still experience chest pain when I speak loudly, shout, or get angry, and the pain spreads and continues until I lie down or someone rubs my back. I also feel pain while climbing stairs. All tests, including CT Angiography, came back normal, and my cardiologist confirmed no cardiac issues, yet my symptoms persist with no improvement. I am now totally confused about what to do next.

I am experiencing frequent mood fluctuations and get anxious easily. Recently, I have gained a lot of weight despite no changes in my food habits, and my thyroid test is normal. I often feel very sad, have no enthusiasm for anything, and feel like giving up easily. My sleeping patterns have changed drastically, I either sleep too much or very little. What could be causing this, and what should I do?
