I have been taking Vitamin D3 60,000 IU regularly for the past year. However, for the last two months, I have been experiencing a dull pain in my left abdomen. My recent Vitamin D3 level is 121 ng per mL, and my urine report shows the presence of amorphous phosphates. The recent ultrasound is normal. Could you please advise if this could be due to Vitamin D3 toxicity and what steps I should take next to correct this?

Your Vitamin D level is quite high. Long term high doses can cause calcium imbalance and kidney dysfunction. Stop supplements, drink plenty of water, and repeat your blood tests.
