Great that you are focusing on bone health. After high dose Vitamin D, you can shift to a maintenance dose. Calcium citrate is usually well absorbed. Include milk, leafy greens, and regular walking, too. Opt for early morning sunlight walks.

I recently had a blood test, which showed that my vitamin D level is 3.2, indicating a deficiency. Which type of doctor should I consult, and what precautions should I take immediately? I am also attaching my blood test report.

I have pain in my hands and legs but no swelling. I think it is in my bones. My blood report, sugar, and BP are normal. Pain in my hands and CBP is also normal. What could be the cause?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I have numbness in my hands and legs so the local doctor suggested some tests. Please see my reports and tell me if all my tests are normal. Is there any problem with my report? My ESR is 2, CRP is 8.5, T3 free is 3.05, T4 free is 1.16, TSH free is 2.18, ANA is less than 0.5, vitamin D3 is 20.07, and vitamin B12 is 661.
