Yes, low Vitamin D can cause headaches, weakness, and imbalance. It is common in indoor workers and those with low sunlight exposure. Supplementation for 8 to 12 weeks usually helps. Retest levels after treatment.

I have been experiencing headache, chest pain, and body aches throughout the day. I have undergone all cardiac tests, and they came out normal. However, my blood report shows the following results: ESR: 3 mm/hour Uric Acid: 7.4 mg/dL Vitamin D3: 16.4 ng/mL Could these findings be the cause of my symptoms?
