Question 1

I have been suffering from a slipped disc for the past four months. My blood report shows a deficiency in Vitamin B12 and D3. Could you please suggest which calcium supplement or medicines I should take for these deficiencies? Currently, I am taking Gemcal Plus.

Question 2

I underwent a full body checkup yesterday and received my report. I need consultation as several parameters are not within the normal range. Some of the highlighted abnormalities include: Total Cholesterol Serum at 120 mg/dl, Total Lipid at 305.60 mg/dl, Vitamin D 25 Hydroxy at 7.3 ng/ml, Bilirubin Total at 2.10 mg/dl, Bilirubin Direct at 0.83 mg/dl, Bilirubin Indirect at 1.27 mg/dl, and Urea/Creatinine Ratio at 37.74. I am attaching the screenshots of my blood and liver report for your reference. Please review them and suggest the appropriate medication and dietary changes.

Question 3

Hi Doctor, for the past one week, I have been experiencing pain in my lower back, especially in the mornings. The pain tends to improve as the day progresses. I had a similar issue a few years ago, and at that time, my doctor said it was due to a lack of calcium and vitamin D, which was confirmed by my blood test. I want to know if this could be the same problem again, and what should I take to get relief from this morning back pain?

If vitamin D increased from 32 to 138 in a month, is that a cause for cancer? He also has acute back pain and said that his bones are dissolving into his blood, which is why his vitamin D increased so much?

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.
