Fast vitamin D rise usually from high supplements. High vitamin D can cause toxicity, bone pain. Not directly a sign of cancer. Stop vitamin D, check calcium, kidney health. Do Serum Calcium, KFT, PTH tests.

Dr. Kamran Suggests...

Take a Calcium Test Test or Take a RENAL PROFILE/KIDNEY FUNCTION TEST (RFT/KFT) Test

Two months ago, my blood report showed Vitamin D3 at 17, and I started taking one tablet weekly as prescribed. After two months, my Vitamin D3 level has dropped to 9. Which supplement should I take for faster recovery, considering that relying on sunlight is not an option?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I recently got a blood test report showing my Vitamin D level as 18.11 ng/mL. I am experiencing fatigue, unusual joint and muscle aches, and back pain. Could these symptoms be due to low Vitamin D? Should I take Vitamin D3 60,000 IU once a week? Please advise what I should do.
